Rise and Judge, Eternal OneWords: portions of Psalms 82 and 83 Music: Dwight Armstrong(If your computer has sound but the music is not playing, click here.) 1. In the midst of magistrates, God His judgment gives. This He asks, how long will you Thus unjustly judge, To respect the wicked's cause And the righteous blame? Judge the poor and fatherless; Judge them righteously. 2. Earth's foundations have been moved; All in darkness walk. Judges of the earth know not Nor will understand; God has said they are like gods, Sons of God Most High; But they all shall die like men; And as princes fall. 3. Keep not silence, O my God; Your foes plot their schemes; That the name of Israel May be blotted out; Put them all to shame, O God As they would Your sons, Rise and judge, Eternal One, For the earth is Yours! 4. Let men know that You, O Lord, The Eternal One, Are Most High o'er all the earth; Let men know Your Name! They know not nor understand; They shall die like men; Rise and judge, Eternal One, For the earth is Yours! |
