 I all on earth forsake,

Its wisdom, fame, and pow'r;

And Him my only portion make,

My Shield and Tower.

The God of Abraham praise,

Whose all sufficient grace

Shall guide me all my happy days

In all His ways.

He calls a worm His friend,

He calls Himself my God;

And he shall save me to the end,

Through Jesus' blood.

The Lord is King! lift up your voice,

O earth, and all ye Heav'ns, rejoice;

From world to world the joy shall ring,

The Lord Omnipotent is King.

He reigns! ye saints exalt your strains;

Your God is King, your Father reigns!

And He is at the Father's side,

The Man of Love, the Crucified.

Come, make your wants, your burdens known,

He will present them at the throne;

And Angel bands are waiting there,

His messages of Love to bear.

O, when His wisdom can mistake,

His might decay, His love forsake,

Then may His children cease to sing,

"The Lord Omnipotent is King."
