1. The Lord reigns; let the earth rejoice;let the many coastlands be glad!
2. Clouds and darkness are all around Him;righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.
3. A fire goes before Himand burns up His enemies all around.
4. His lightning bolts light up the world;the earth sees and shakes.
5. The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the Lord,at the presence of the Lord of the earth.
