[verse 1] For the leader’s song—of David born. Let the king rejoice in Jehovah’s arm. [verse 2] In Your strength, O Lord, he lifts his voice— In Your salvation, he makes his choice. [verse 3] You gave him what his heart desired. The words he prayed—you never denied. [verse 4] You came before with blessings wide, And placed a crown of gold on his head with pride. [verse 5] He asked for life—You gave it full, Endless days, forever whole. [chorus] Great is his glory—You raised him high. Clothed in honor that cannot die. Blessed forever, filled with joy— You let him stand where saints rejoice. [verse 6] You made him glad with joy from Your face, You crowned him strong with royal grace. [verse 7] For the king trusts in Jehovah’s name, The Most High holds him firm and sane. [bridge] Your hand will strike all enemies down, Your right hand tears the haters' crown. You’ll burn them up like a furnace flame— Fire consumes and wrath remains. [verse 8] Their children gone, their seed erased, Their name cut off from human race. They planned their harm, but failed to stand— Their schemes collapse like shifting sand. [bridge 2] You aimed Your bow, You drew it tight. They turned and fell in sudden fright. You set their face beneath Your string— And shot them down before the King. [chorus] Rise, Jehovah, in Your power! We will sing in the final hour. We will praise Your mighty name— The world will shake, the foes will flame. [outro] Jehovah reigns—let the people sing. Strength and glory crown the King.
