Judgement And Justice

orchidee



Tune: Luckington

('Let all the world in every corner sing')

Psalm 9 v.7-13

********

The Lord He shall endure for evermore

'Tis a truth sure

He has prepared His throne

For judgement, He alone

Shall judge world righteously

And too shall justice be

The Lord also will be a refuge strong

All day, night long

 

A refuge for the oppressed in their times

Throughout life's rhymes

Their times of trouble, they

That know His name, His way

Shall in Him put their trust

Though man be made of dust

For the Lord, He has not forsaken meek

Who do Him seek

 

Sing praises to the Lord, to Him who swells

In Zion, tells

Each one, and they declare

His doings, they them share

He forgets not the cry

Of humble, does draw nigh

To them, and shows them His mercy, and keeps

Them as His sheep

        Judgement and justice
        I leave in your court
        I hope my pleads reach
        An easier punishment for stealing cookies please …
