Hymn 193: Clap your hands, ye people all

Verse 1

Clap your hands, ye people all.

Praise the God on whom ye call;

Lift your voice, and shout His praise;

Triumph in His sov’regn grace!


Verse 2

Glorious in the Lord most High,

Terrible in majesty”

He His sovereign grace sway maintains,

King o’er all the earth He reigns


Verse 3

Jesus is gone up on high,

Takes His seat above the sky:

Shout the angel-choirs aloud,

Echoing to the trump of God.


Verse 4

Sons of earth, triumph join,

Praise Him with the host divine;

Emulate the heavenly powers,

Their victorious Lord is ours.


Verse 5

Shout the God enthroned above.

Trumpet forth His conquering love;

Praises to our Jesus sing,

Praises to our glorious King!


Verse 6

Power is all to Jesus given,

Power o’er hell, and earth, and heaven!

Power He now to us imparts;

Praise Him with believing hearts.


Verse 7

Wonderful in saving power,

Him let all our hearts adore;

Earth and heaven repeat the cry,

“Glory be to God most High!”

Charles Wesley.
