Words: The Psalter of the United Presbyterian Church of North America, 1887 ed.

Note: there is also a Short Metre version on this page

Common Metre Tunes

   1  Jehovah reigns, and clothed is he
         With majesty most bright;
      Himself Jehovah clothes with strength,
         And girds about with might.

   2  The world is also firmly fixed,
         That it cannot depart.
      Thy throne is fixed of old, and thou
         From everlasting art.

   3  The floods, O Lord, have lifted up,
         They lifted up their voice;
      The floods have lifted up their waves,
         And made a mighty noise.

   4  But yet the Lord, that is on high
         Is mightier by far,
      Than noise of many waters is,
         Or great sea-billows are.

   5  Thy testimonies ev'ry one
         In faithfulness excel;
      And holiness forever Lord,
         Thy house becometh well.

   4     But yet the Lord on high,
         Is mightier by far
      Than noise of many waters is,

   5     Thy testimonies all
         In faithfulness excel;
      And holiness forever, Lord,
         Thy house becometh well.
