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.
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.
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.
