Psalm 47

Truro L.M. (Psalmodia Evangelica, Thomas Williams,1789)

1 All nations, clap your hands and shout;
to God with joyful voices sing!
2 For awesome is the LORD Most High,
who over all the earth is king. BPW

3 He has subdued beneath our feet
the nations who had been our foes.
4 He chose for us our heritage,
the pride of Jacob whom he chose.

5 God has gone up with shouts of joy,
the LORD amid the trumpet sound.
6 Sing praise, sing praise to God Most High;
to God our King let praise abound.

7 For God is king of all the earth;
sing psalms of praise to him alone.
8 God rules the nations from on high
and sits upon his holy throne.

9 The leaders of the nations come
to yield themselves to Abram’s God.
To him belong the shields of earth;
exalted greatly is the LORD!
