The present paper concerns an initial boundary value problem of two-dimensional (2D) nonhomogeneous magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations with non-negative density. We establish the global existence and exponential decay of strong solutions. In particular, the initial data can be arbitrarily large. The key idea is to use a lemma due to Desjardins (Arch. Rational Mech. Anal. 137:135–158, 1997).
