Let God arise, His foes shall flee,

Like smoke before the wind they’ll be.

Sing to the Lord, lift up His name,

Ride on the clouds — forever the same!

Father to the fatherless,

Defender strong in righteousness.

Blessed be the Lord, our saving King,

He bears our burdens, hear us sing!

You led Your people through the flame,

You brought the rain, You stayed the same.

You climbed the heights, received the prize,

With gifts for men, You now arise!

Sing to God, O kingdoms all,

Lift your voice, and heed His call.

Awesome is our God above,

Crowned with strength and endless love.

Defender strong in holiness.

Let God arise, let nations sing,

He reigns forever — risen King!
