Great Is Jehovah
Words: Franz Schubert
Music: Great Is Jehovah | Franz Schubert
Great is Jehovah the Lord,
The heav’ns and the earth proclaim His pow’r and His might.
Great is Jehovah the Lord,
The heav’ns and the earth proclaim His pow’r, His might.

’Tis heard in the crash of the storm;
In the wild torrents’ loud impetuous roar;
Great is Jehovah the Lord.
’Tis heard in the crash of the storm;
In the wild torrents’ loud impetuous roar;
Great is Jehovah the Lord.
Wondrous His power and might.

At His commandment trees put forth their op’ning leaves,
And valleys wave bright with golden corn;
With lovely flow’rs the fields are deck’d,
And stars in splendor fill the vault of heaven;
In splendor fill the vault of heav’n;
With lovely flow’rs the fields are deck’d,
And stars in splendor fill the vault of heaven;
In splendor fill the vault of heav’n;

Heard with dread in the thunder’s deep blast,
And seen in flames of lightning;
But chief in His great lovingkindness shines forth Jehovah’s boundless might;
In His lovingkindness shines forth the boundless pow’r of God,
The Everlasting God;

Raise your prayerful hearts on high,
And hope for mercy and trust in Him;
Raise your prayerful hearts on high,
And hope for mercy and trust in Him.

Great is Jehovah the Lord!
Great is Jehovah the Lord!
