Lyrics
O all ye people, clap your hands,
And with triumphant voices sing;
No force the mighty power withstands
Of God, the universal King.
He shall opposing nations quell,
And with success our battles fight,
Shall fix the place where we must dwell,
The pride of Jacob, his delight.
God is gone up, our Lord and King,
With shouts of joy and trumpet's sound;
To him repeated praises sing,
And let the cheerful song go round.
