The multitudes cheer God,
the multitudes praise God, praise God;
all mouths name the one true God,
the one true God, the one true God.
The multitudes cheer God, the multitudes praise God;
all mouths name the one true God,
all people lift their eyes to watch God’s deeds.
The kingdom descends upon the world of men,
God’s person is rich and bountiful.
Who would not rejoice at this? Who would not dance for joy?
Oh, Zion! Oh, Zion! Oh, Zion!
Raise your triumphant banner to celebrate God!
Sing your triumphant song of victory to spread God’s holy name!
All creation unto the ends of the earth!
Hasten to cleanse yourselves that you may be made as offerings to God!
Oh, constellations in the sky above!
Hasten back to your places to show God’s mighty power in the firmament!
God lends His ear to the voices of the people on earth,
who pour out their infinite love and reverence for Him in song!
Ha, ha, ha, ha.
Ha, ha.
On this day, when all creation returns to life, God comes down into the world of men.
At this moment, at this very juncture,
all flowers burst into riotous bloom,
all birds sing as with one voice, all things palpitate with joy!
In the sound of the kingdom’s salute, Satan’s kingdom topples down.
On this day, when all creation returns to life,
God comes down into the world of men.
At this moment, at this very juncture, all flowers burst into riotous bloom,
all birds sing as with one voice, all things palpitate with joy!
In the sound of the kingdom’s salute, Satan’s kingdom topples down,
annihilated in the thundering of the kingdom anthem, never to rise again!
Who on the earth dares to rise and resist?
As God descends to earth, as God descends to earth,
He brings burning, brings wrath,
brings catastrophes of all kinds.
The earthly kingdoms are now God’s kingdom!
Up in the sky, the clouds tumble and billow;
under the sky, lakes and rivers
surge and joyously churn out a stirring melody.
Resting animals emerge from their dens,
and all peoples are aroused from their slumbers by God.
The day awaited by the multitudinous peoples has come at last!
They offer up the most beautiful songs to God!
To God!
They offer up the most beautiful songs to God!
