"God, the Omnipotent!" is a hymn with words written in 1842 by Henry F. Chorley (1808–1872) and 3rd and 4th stanzas by John Ellerton (1826–1893) in 1870. It is based on a text from , "The Lord God omnipotent reigneth" (KJV). Set in 11.10.11.9 meter, the tune is from the 19th century Russian national anthem, ''God Save The Tsar!'', composed by Alexei Lvov (1798–1870) in 1833. The tune name is ''Russian Hymn'' in various modern hymnals, such as those of the United Methodist Church and the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), or just ''Russia'', as in ''The Hymnal 1982'' of the Episcopal Church in the United States of America.〔 Called "stirring" by one hymn editor, the hymn is described as having "a triumphant, positive quality". The first two verses are: In 1982, new words to the ''Russian Hymn'' tune were composed by Carl P. Daw Jr., entitled ''Christ the Victorious'', for the U.S. Episcopal Church's ''The Hymnal 1982''.〔 Both versions, ''God, the Omnipotent!'' and ''Christ the Victorious'', appear in ''The Hymnal 1982''.〔 ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「God, the Omnipotent!」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
