God of Righteousness and Justice
Embraced by Divine Love: A Song of Redemption and Forgiveness
Lyrics
Out of the goodness of Your love, You deliver me
Expressing gratitude for being delivered by God due to His love.
In accordance with Your love, You save me
Acknowledging salvation in alignment with God's love.
When my heart is wounded within me
Describing emotional distress, and seeking solace from God.
You wrapped me around with Your love
Experiencing God's love as a comforting embrace.
They may curse, but You will bless
Contrasting human curses with God's blessings.
They may withhold, but You will give
Highlighting God's generosity in contrast to human withholding.
They attack, but You're a shield
Depicting God as a shield against attacks.
They destroy, but You rebuild
Emphasizing God's ability to rebuild and restore what is destroyed.
They grumble, but You forgive
Illustrating God's forgiveness in response to human grumbling.
No one who is deceitful will dwell in Your house
Declaring that deceitful individuals won't have a place in God's dwelling.
No one who speaks falsely will stand in Your ground
Affirming that those who speak falsely won't stand on God's ground.
Your eyes will be on the faithful
Assuring that God's attention is on the faithful ones.
And they will dwell with You forever
Promise of eternal dwelling with God for the faithful.
How can we not love You?
Rhetorical questioning about the inevitability of loving God.
How can we not serve You?
Rhetorical questioning about the natural inclination to serve God.
How can we not set our eyes on You?
Rhetorical questioning about the necessity of focusing on God.
Oh God of righteousness and justice
Addressing God as the embodiment of righteousness and justice.
