This sonnet, a majestic ode inspired by Psalm 91, exalts God as a sovereign King whose radiant power and eternal glory protect the faithful. Portrayed as enthroned in fiery splendor, God’s unassailable authority repels all threats—storms, plagues, and chaos—rendering them powerless before His royal command. His angelic legions joyfully guard His chosen, ensuring their safety through darkness and turmoil. While worldly empires crumble, the faithful rise unscathed, fortified by God’s truth and soaring in spirit. The sonnet culminates in a triumphant proclamation of God’s unending reign, celebrating His victory that shields the soul from all strife and crowns it with everlasting life. Its regal, victorious tone mirrors Psalm 91’s assurance of divine refuge and deliverance for those who trust in the Almighty.

Great King of Heaven, crowned in endless fire,
Thy throne of glory gilds the starry skies;
No foe can breach the ramparts of Thy spire,
Where faithful hearts in radiant splendor rise.

The tempest kneels before Thy royal decree,
No plague endures Thy scepter’s holy might;
Thy legions, clad in light, proclaim Thy glee,
To shield Thy flock through chaos and the night.

Though empires quake and mortal glories fade,
Thy chosen stand, their spirits soaring high,
By truth’s great shield eternally arrayed.

All laud the Lord who reigns o’er vast empire!
His triumph guards the soul through every strife,
Forever crowned in everlasting life.
