Lyrics
Chorus God mounts his throne to shouts of joy: A blare of trumpets for the Lord. Verse 1 All you peoples, clap your hands, Shout to God with cries of gladness. For the Lord, the Most High, the awesome, Is the great king over all the earth. Verse 2 God mounts His throne amid shouts of joy; The Lord, amid trumpet blasts. Sing praise to God, sing praise; Sing praise to our king, sing praise. Verse 3 For king of all the earth is God; Sing hymns of praise. God reigns over the nations, God sits upon his holy throne.
