Rise Up, O Lord (Psalm 10)
Lyrics and music by Jody Killingsworth, 2013
Why do you stand afar off, O Lord?
Why do you hide Yourself in times of trouble?
Proudly the wicked pursues the poor
By his own plots, Lord, let him be surprised
Rise up, O Lord
Hear how he boasts of his heart’s desire
See how he taunts, no, he’s not going to seek You
All of his thoughts are, “There is no God”
Why do You let him live before Your eyes?
Rise up, O Lord!
God, lift up Your hand
Why do You let these wicked men stand?
When will you break them, take them in hand?
You’ve always been a helper of the orphan
Rise up, O Lord
His mouth is filled with oppressive words
Why do you let him prosper by deceiving?
He sits secure, living undisturbed
Your judgments never even cross his mind
Lying in wait for the helpless child
Lurking in shadows, trying hard to cheat him
He stalks his prey like a hungry lion
Why do You let him live before Your eyes?
Rise up, O Lord!
God, lift up Your hand
Why do You let these wicked men stand?
When will you break them, take them in hand?
You’ve always been a helper of the orphan
Rise up, O Lord
Rise up, O Lord
Rise up, O Lord
Rise up, O Lord
The Lord is King,
And He will live forever
Every wicked scheme
Of man’s will fall apart
For God will bring it down,
And give to all the humble
The desires of their heart
The Lord is King,
Let all the peoples tremble
Every evil thing
Will perish from the land
For God will vindicate
The cause of the afflicted
And uphold them with His hand
Rise up, O Lord
Rise up, O Lord
Rise up, O Lord
Rise up, O Lord
