Praise - Halijkah

Tune: Webb

(Stand up, stand up for Jesus\')

Psalm 68 parts

Halijkah -one Hebrew word for \'praise\'

********

Halijkah, a procession

Marching in succession

A caravan, company

To the Lord their praise be

And when the Lord God went forth

The one of awesome worth

When He did march through desert

Victory was clear set

 

For then the earth did shake sure

The heavens rain outpoured

At presence of God, and e\'en

Mount Sinai was seen

To be moved at such a one

Comparable to none

The Lord their guide, guardian

Of children, women, men

 

Let God arise, enemies

Be scattered, for He frees

Us from them, and let they who

Hate him flee from Him, do

As smoke driven away, drive

Them away, they not thrive

So let the wicked perish

But [the] righteous Him cherish

 

Let them be glad and rejoice

The have made Him their choice

Extol Him, He rides upon

The heavens, holy one

His name is JAH, JEHOVAH

The Lord, to Him all stir

To process in His victory

Which every soul shall see

 

Ascribe unto God strength for

He excellent e\'ermore

His strength is in the clouds here

Terrible, awesome fear

Yet He the God of Israel

Does hear who on Him call

Strength, power, gives He to each

Salvation does them reach
