Lyrics
Let God Arise
Let God Arise
Let His Enemies be scattered
But let the righteous be glad
Yes let them rejoice with Gladness
God has triumphed mightily
(1
Let God Arise
Let God Arise
Let His enemies be scattered
And let the righteous be glad
Yes! Let them regoice with gladness
God has triumph mightily
It is good to praise the Lord
And make music to your Name Oh God Most High
To proclaim your love and faithfulness
Through the day and through the night
May I dwell in your courts Oh Lord
Then to florish like the trees of Lebanon
Planted in the house of Adoni
There to live forevermore
Roni Roni Bat Zion
Hariu Yisrael
Simchi V'Altsi B'Chol Lev
Bat Yerushalayim
Rejoice Rejoice Daughter of Zion
Shout aloud Oh Israel
Sing Rejoice with all your heart
Oh Jerusalem
For the Lord has taken your punishment
Destroyed your enemies
King of Israel
Lord of all is He
In the midst of us He is mighty
For the Lord your God in the midst of you
Mighty is His Name
Rejoicing over you with Songs of Gladness
Singing Joyfully
He will save us

Meaning & Inspiration
This medley gathers three biblical calls to celebration: God rises against opposition, praise continues through day and night, and Zion rejoices because the Lord is present. Its movement from triumph to thanksgiving gives the song a communal character without losing its focus on God. The repeated declarations of gladness suit a worship setting centered on divine victory, faithfulness, and protection.
Several passages are echoed with unusual clarity. The opening follows Psalm 68, while the lines about music, steadfast love, and flourishing in the house of the Lord reflect Psalm 92. The final portion closely follows Zephaniah 3, including the removal of judgment, the presence of the King, and God rejoicing with singing. Hebrew phrases alongside their English sense connect the medley to the language and imagery of Zion. Taken together, the sections portray praise as a response to a God who scatters enemies, sustains the righteous, and remains among his people.
