Lyrics
I put my trust in the Lord
I place my reliance in the Lord
Trust in him for my protection
Depend on Him for my safeguard
Why do you say to me
Questioning why someone suggests
Fly up to the mountains
To escape to the mountains
The wicked string their bows
The wicked prepare for conflict
Their fitting their arrows
Stringing their bows, fitting arrows
They place them on the string
Placing them on the string
Pull it tight and let it fling
Pulling it tight and releasing
Foundations have collapsed
Foundations have crumbled
Law and order may be sacked
Law and order might be destroyed
Their shooting from the dark
They shoot from the shadows
Shoot to kill the righteous heart
Shoot to fatally strike the righteous heart
I put my trust in the Lord (I put my trust in the Lord)
I place my reliance in the Lord (Repeated)
Trust in him for my protection (trust him fro my protection)
Depend on Him for my safeguard (Repeated)
Why do you say to me (doesn't matter what you say to me)
Questioning the relevance of others' words
Fly up to the mountains (go and fly up to the mountains)
Suggesting to escape to the mountains (Repeated)
The Lord is up in heaven
The Lord is in heaven
He's ruling from his throne
Ruling from His throne
He's watching super close
Observing closely
Sees each person here on earth
Seeing every person on earth
The Lord he sees the wicked
The Lord observes the wicked
Hates the ones who loves to bruise
Detests those who enjoy causing harm
He'll rain down burning sulphur
Will bring down burning sulfur
And punish evil fools
To punish evildoers
I put my trust in the Lord (I put my trust in the Lord)
I place my reliance in the Lord (Repeated)
Trust in him for my protection (trust him fro my protection)
Depend on Him for my safeguard (Repeated)
Why do you say to me (doesn't matter what you say to me)
Questioning the relevance of others' words
My hope is up in the heavens
Expressing hope in the heavens
In the heavens, woah
Repeating the hope in the heavens with emphasis
In the heavens, woah
-The Lord is righteous just and he's true
The Lord is righteous, just, and true
He loves righteous deeds that flow out from you
Appreciates righteous deeds
The upright shall behold his face
The upright will see His face
Yeah I know I'm only here
Acknowledging existence by divine grace
I know I'm only here by your grace
-I know I'm only here by your grace
-I put my trust in the Lord (I put my trust in the Lord)
I place my reliance in the Lord (Repeated)
Trust in him for my protection (trust him fro my protection)
Depend on Him for my safeguard (Repeated)
Why do you say to me (doesn't matter what you say to me)
Questioning the relevance of others' words
My hope is up in the heavens
Expressing hope in the heavens
I put my trust in the Lord (I put my trust in the Lord)
I place my reliance in the Lord (Repeated)
Trust in him for my protection (trust him fro my protection)
Depend on Him for my safeguard (Repeated)
Why do you say to me (doesn't matter what you say to me)
Questioning the relevance of others' words
My hope is up in the heavens
Expressing hope in the heavens
In the heavens, woah
Repeating the hope in the heavens with emphasis
