PSALM 73 Like A Beast Lyrics - Artist : Colter, Jessi
Truly God is good to Israel
Even to such as (No) Truly God is good to Israel Even to such as (Who are of a clean heart, okay) Truly God is good to Israel Such as are of a clean heart (Too clean) Truly God is good to Israel Those who are clean of heart For me, my feet were almost gone My steps had waivered and I slipped He was just envious of the foolish And sees that there's no bands in their death And their strength is firm and they're not in trouble and Neither are they plagued like other men Therefore, pride covereth them about as a chain And violence covereth them as a garment And their eyes stand out with fatness They have more than the heart can wish And they're corrupt and speak wickedly (Ha, ha) He sees all this and then, and then he looks in And sees into the sanctuary And he understands their end, you know? I mean, ha, there's a lot to it I'm just kinda explain' it Truly God is good to Israel Even to such as are of a clean heart But as for me, my feet were almost gone My steps had waivered and I slipped I was envious of the foolish When I saw the prosperity of the wicked For there are no bands in their death Their strength is firm They're not in trouble as other men Neither are they plagued like other men Therefore, pride covereth them about like a chain Violence covereth them as a garment Their eyes stand out with fatness They have more than heart can wish for They are corrupt and speak wickedly Concerning oppression, they speak loftily They set their mouth against the heavens And their tongue walketh through the earth Therefore his people return hither And the waters of a full cup will run out to me And they say, How does God know? And, Is there knowledge in the Most High God? Behold, these are the end of those who prosper in the world They increase in riches Verily, I've cleansed my heart in vain And washed my hands in innocence For all the day long I have been plagued And chastened every morning I say I will speak thus Behold, I should offend against the generation of our children I thought to know this, it was too painful for me Until I went into the sanctuary Then I understood how their end Surely, Thou would set them in slippery places Thou would casteth them down into destruction How were they brought? How were they brought? How were they brought in desolation? In a moment they are consumed with terror As a dream of one man Oh Lord, thou awakest And thou shall despise their image 'Cause my heart was grieved And I was pricked in my reins So foolish was I, I didn't know I was as a beast before thee Nevertheless, I am continually with thee Thou hast holden me by thy right hand Thou shall guide me with thy council And afterward receive me to Glory Whom I have in heaven Who have I in the earth but you, my Lord? But you beside me My flesh and my heart they fail God is the strength of my heart And my portion forever For no men are far from thee that perish Thou has destroyed those that go a-whorin' against satan But it good for me to draw near to God I have put my trust in the Lord |
