The seventh Angel trumpeted. A crescendo of voices in Heaven sang out,The kingdom of the world is nowthe Kingdom of our God and his Messiah!He will rule forever and ever!The Twenty-four Elders seated before God on their thrones fell to their knees, worshiped, and sang,We thank you, O God, Sovereign-Strong,Who Is and Who Was.You took your great powerand took over—reigned!The angry nations nowget a taste of your anger.The time has come to judge the dead,to reward your servants, all prophets and saints,Reward small and great who fear your Name,and destroy the destroyers of earth.
