1100  PRAISE OF THE LORD — His Victory and Exaltation — Psalm 68

1. God shall rise, His foes be scattered,
  All that hate Him flee away.
  As the wax before the fire,
  All the wicked He shall slay.
  But the righteous shall rejoice
  With a loud, triumphant voice,
  Singing praises, singing praises,
  Singing praises unto God!
  
2. He is riding through the deserts,
  Bringing in His saints in need.
  He's a Father to the orphans
  And a refuge tried indeed
  In His holy habitation —
  What wonderful salvation!
  Hallelujah, hallelujah!
  Hallelujah! Amen!
  
3. Here the lone have found a family,
  Here the desolate a home;
  Prisoners are brought from bondage
  To prosperity unknown.
  For the flock — what wondrous grace —
  God prepared this dwelling place:
  Hallelujah, hallelujah,
  Hallelujah, Amen!
  
4. Now the Lord in mighty triumph
  Sends the news of victory;
  We the “women” spread the tidings —
  “Kings of armies flee, they flee!”
  No more sweat and dreary toil;
  We at home divide the spoil!
  Hallelujah, hallelujah,
  Hallelujah, Amen!
  
5. Lo, on high Christ hath ascended,
  Leading captives in His train;
  These as gifts He has perfected
  That the Lord may dwell with them.
  Brothers, sisters, we are those,
  We're those transformed, vanquished foes!
  Hallelujah, hallelujah,
  Hallelujah, Amen!
  
6. Blessed be the Lord forever:
  Day by day He loads with good,
  E'en the God of our salvation —
  Spread His worthy praise abroad.
  His the goings forth from death,
  Every foe He conquereth!
  Hallelujah, hallelujah,
  Hallelujah, Amen!
  
7. They have seen, O God, Thy goings
  In Thy holy dwelling place,
  Thy triumphant, high processions
  Midst a mighty voice of praise.
  See the singers go before,
  Praising, praising o'er and o'er:
  Hallelujah, hallelujah,
  Hallelujah! Amen!
  
8. Little Benjamin is leading,
  Then great Judah's company:
  Son of sorrow at God's right hand,
  Lion with the scepter see.
  Zebulun and Naphtali
  Make the joyful tidings fly:
  Hallelujah, hallelujah,
  Hallelujah! Amen!
  
9. Saints, thy strength has been commanded
  From the temple glorious;
  Still we pray that God may strengthen
  All that He has wrought for us.
  Higher yet our praise shall rise
  Till the utmost earth replies:
  Hallelujah, hallelujah,
  Hallelujah! Amen!
