The people cheer God, the people praise God; all mouths name the one true God.

The kingdom descends on the world.

The people cheer God, the people praise God;

all mouths name the one true God, all people raise their eyes to watch God’s deeds.

The kingdom descends on the world,

God’s person is rich and bountiful (rich and bountiful).

Who would not celebrate for this? (Who would not celebrate for this?)

Who would not dance with joy for this? (Who would not dance with joy for this?)

Oh, Zion! (Oh, Zion!) Oh, Zion! (Oh, Zion!)

Raise your triumphant banner to celebrate God!

Sing your triumphant song of victory and spread God’s holy name!

All things on earth! Now purify yourselves in sacrifice for God!

Stars in the sky! Now return to your places and show God’s greatness in the firmament!

God attends to the voices of the people on earth,

pouring out infinite love and reverence for Him in song!

On this day, as all things rejuvenate, God comes to walk the earth.

At this moment, the flowers bloom, the birds sing, all things are full of jubilation!

The birds sing, all things are full of jubilation! In the sound of the kingdom’s salute, Satan’s kingdom collapses,

destroyed in the reverberating chorus of the kingdom anthem. And it will never rise again!

Who on the earth dares to rise and resist?

As God descends to earth He brings burning, brings wrath,

brings all disasters, brings all disasters.

The earthly kingdoms now are God’s kingdom!

Up in the sky, the clouds tumble and billow;

under the sky (under the sky), under the sky (under the sky),

lakes and rivers surge and churn out a moving melody.

Resting animals emerge from their dens, and all peoples who slumber are awakened by God.

The day all peoples have awaited finally has come!

They offer up the most beautiful songs to God! To God!

To God!
