God of Majesty and Might

“God of Majesty and Might” is a congregational worship song centered on the greatness, holiness, sovereignty, and eternal reign of God. Drawing heavily from the language and themes of the Psalms, the song calls the church to proclaim God’s mighty works from generation to generation and to join heaven and earth in declaring His worth.

The song moves from the immeasurable greatness of God and His sovereign work in creation to His justice and faithfulness, culminating in the person and work of Jesus Christ—the righteous King through whom all things were made, who bore our sin, conquered death, and reigns forever.Theological Emphasis

This song is a clear expression of the doctrines of substitutionary atonement, justification by faith alone, and salvation by grace alone through Christ alone.

This song is a declaration of God’s transcendent greatness, sovereign power, holiness, and eternal kingship, while explicitly locating the saving work of God in Jesus Christ.

It highlights:

  • The immeasurable greatness of God (“Great is the Lord and greatly praised / His greatness none can measure”)
  • The proclamation of God’s works from generation to generation (“From age to age His works proclaimed”)
  • The holiness and majesty of God (“Holy, Holy is the Lord / God of majesty and might”)
  • Creation as a testimony to God’s glory and worth (“Heaven and earth declare His worth”)
  • God’s sovereign creation and preservation of all things (“He spoke and all creation stood / The heavens fixed in place”)
  • Divine wisdom and providence (“By wisdom sure, by sovereign Word / All things endure by grace”)
  • The justice and faithfulness of God (“The Lord is just in all His ways / Faithful in all He does”)
  • God’s everlasting kingdom and rule (“His Kingdom stands / His rule remains”)
  • Christ as Creator and righteous King (“Behold the Son, the righteous King / Through whom all things were made”)
  • Christ’s substitutionary work and victory over death (“He bore our sin / He conquered death”)
  • The eternal reign of Christ (“And reigns in endless praise”)

Lyrics:

Great is the Lord
and greatly praised
His greatness none
can measure

From age to age
His works proclaimed
His power stands forever

Holy, Holy is the Lord
God of majesty and might
Heaven and earth declare His worth
Let every voice arise

He spoke and all creation stood
the heavens fixed in place
By wisdom sure
by sovereign Word
all things endure by grace

The Lord is just
in all His ways
faithful in all He does
His Kingdom stands
His rule remains
we bless His Holy Name

Behold the Son
the righteous King
Through whom all things were made
He bore our sin
He conquered death
And reigns in endless praise
