Psalm 18: The Conqueror's Anthem

The cords of death entangled me Torrents of destruction overwhelmed The grave's coils were all I could see Death's snares before me yawned In my despair I cried out My voice rang through Heaven's door From His temple the Lord came out The earth shook, His anger poured Smoke and fire blazed all about Dark thunderclouds He tore Darkness sheltered His cherub mount As down from the heavens He came His brightness made storm clouds advance Hailstones and lighting His reign In my despair I cried out My voice rang through Heaven's door He took hold and drew me out From currents rage His power won He took hold and drew me out From currents rage His power won To the faithful, To the pure, To the humble, He's overflowing God is my rock, my saving rebirth His way is perfect, faultless His word He shields all who take refuge in Him The one true God The one true God From His strength I'm empowered Feet swift like the deer Equipped for the battle In Him no fear The one true God The one true God The one true God The one true God From His strength I'm empowered Feet swift like the deer Equipped for the battle In Him no fear From His strength I'm empowered Feet swift like the deer Equipped for the battle In Him no fear The one true God The one true God The one true God You armed me with ferocious might To crush all foes beneath my feet No enemy could withstand my fight Their backs turned in hopeless retreat Like dust they dissipated from my path The nations cowered at my rod No violence or stronghold could attract My wrath when fueled by you my God You raised me high, the heathen's dread Their hearts melted within their holes Exalted I leave their people misled As I take vengeance on their souls Glory! Glory! His name forever Glory! Glory! No equal, no better Glory! Glory! His name forever Glory! Glory! No equal, no better
