Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In realms of might, where the Sovereign stands,
No need for mortal to defend His plans,
He who molds the world with divine hands,
The Creator, Shaper, the Almighty spans.
[Chorus]
Your sovereign will stands firm, O Lord, no power can oppose;
In awe we bow before Your throne, where mercy overflows.
[Verse 2]
In His acts of righteousness, none contest,
For He, the law giver, knows what is best,
From beginning to end, His pleasure invests,
A world unfolding, His decree manifests.
[Chorus]
Your sovereign will stands firm, O Lord, no power can oppose;
In awe we bow before Your throne, where mercy overflows.
[Verse 3]
No need for defense, the faithful perceive,
In God’s sovereignty, they humbly believe,
Yet some may falter, as they try to achieve,
A justifier’s role, in what He conceived.
[Verse 4]
Before time began, His choice was made,
Salvation and damnation, by His will displayed,
Not for good or bad, His plan was laid,
But for His pleasure, the ransom paid.
[Chorus]
Your sovereign will stands firm, O Lord, no power can oppose;
In awe we bow before Your throne, where mercy overflows.
[Verse 5]
The potter and clay, His power reveals,
One vessel for honor, the other truth concealed,
His wrath and mercy, in balance He wields,
To show His glory, His plan unpeels.
[Verse 6]
Tremble in reverence, speak the truth whole,
Even the discomfort, let His story unroll,
For in His sovereignty, we find our soul,
In the Almighty’s hands, eternally console.
[Chorus x2]
Your sovereign will stands firm, O Lord, no power can oppose;
In awe we bow before Your throne, where mercy overflows.
