English text
O all ye people, clap your hands
And make a cheerful noise;
With acclamations to your God
Declare your inward joys.
His high perfections proclaim
Him greatly to be fear'd;
This King of all the world commands
Your honour and regard.
In a triumphant state our Lord
Is gone above the skies:
Trumpet proclaim our joys, and all
Applaud his victories.
Sing cheerful praises to our God,
Sing praises to our King;
He is Lord of all the Earth; his praise
With understanding sing.
God o'er the heathen people reigns,
And in that throne is plac't
Where he in glory sits, and thence
Shall judge the world at last.
