In God Will I Trust

Representative Text

1 In God will I trust, though my counselors say,
"O flee as a bird to your mountain away."
The wicked are strong and the righteous are weak,
foundations are shaken, yet God will I seek.

2 The LORD in His temple shall ever abide;
His throne is eternal, whatever betide;
The children of men He beholds from on high,
the wicked to punish, the righteous to try.

3 The LORD is most righteous, the LORD loves the right,
The evil He hates and will surely requite;
The wicked His anger will drive from their place,
the upright in rapture shall gaze on His face.
