SOVEREIGNTY

His beauty and His majesty

Will never be compared;

He loves justice and all righteousness

And His presence is everywhere.

It’s by the word of His mouth

That all things are established,

Filled with the goodness of the Lord

As we stand in awe indeed.

By His power and His might

He gathers the waters of the sea,

Where an abundance of life dwells within

In which He has decreed.

Sovereign in His total control

And by His grace we’re granted breath,

As we arise each and every morning

Where His mercies are new and fresh.

His word is always right

Where no confusion will exist,

Because it’s with authority and it’s absolute

And no detail He has missed.

We may wonder why the wicked prosper

But there’s a reversal of fortunes indeed,

Where the righteous enter into eternal life

Whilst the wicked death will see.

But He is patient and is loving

Not willing that any should perish,

But that all come to repentance

And His ways we love and cherish.

It’s only by His grace and strength

That kingdoms are subdued,

Because no king is ever saved by his army

Or delivered from his own strength too.

The Lord sees from heaven;

His eye is on those who fear Him,

Who hope in His mercy

To be delivered from their sin.
