Adonai

Adonai

 

Oh sovereign Lord, our lord

You are worthy to be adored!

Master of all you survey

We will seek the words you say.

We will hear and we will obey!

 

Lord of life , Lord of love

Lord of heaven above

Lord of earth below

Come now and show

Your will in us so all may know.

 

Oh Lord most high

You alone are Adonai

You speak your command and we comply

Rule over us, sovereign Adonai!

 

By your pleasure nations rise and fall

By your pleasure you extend your call

By your pleasurewe live or we die

Rule over us sovereign Adonai

We praise the name of Lord Adonai!

 

Oh Lord most high

You alone are Adonai

You speak your command and we comply

Rule over us, sovereign Adonai!
