2 I go sing with joy because of you. I go sing praise to you, Almighty God.

3 My enemy dey turn back when you show; dem dey fall down die.

4 You dey honest and good when you dey judge and you don judge for my favor.

5 You don condemn the sinners and destroy the wicked; nobody go remember them again.

6 Our enemy don finish for ever; you don destroy their cities and nobody dey remember them again.

7 But God na king forever; he don set up him throne for judgment.

8 He dey rule the world with righteousness; he dey judge nation with justice.

9 God na protection for the oppressed, a place of safety for time of trouble.

10 God, those wey know you go trust you; you no dey leave anybody wey come meet you.

11 Make una sing praise to the LORD, wey dey rule for Zion! Tell every nation wetin him don do.
