The Lord is on His Throne
Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)
The Lord is on his heavenly throne;
He observes the sons of men.
The Sovereign God is on his throne;
He examines them.
The righteous he examines;
But the wicked his soul hates!
Violent men are cast into hell;
Their judgment still awaits.
And for the righteous there is hope;
They will live to see his face!
And when their days on earth are done;
They will stand; not be disgraced!
