Psalm 1 (The Wicked)
04:33
|
|||
Verse 1
The wicked give directions down the easy street
Blessed are those who do not follow them
The wicked follow the crowd wherever it may lead
Blessed are those who do not follow them
But those who keep their minds upon the things of God
Will be like trees planted by the water
Chorus
Growing deep their roots, they will bear good fruit
And their leaves will not be withered on the ground.
God will watch their paths and they’ll learn to watch Him back
But beware the roads the wicked send you down.
Verse 2
The wicked, like the chaff the wind will blow away
Blessed are those who do not follow them
The wicked cannot stand upon the judgment day
Blessed are those who do not follow them
But those who keep their minds upon the things of God
Will be like trees planted by the water
Back to Chorus
Bridge:
The wicked will not stand, only a righteous man
Has a place before a righteous God
There are many ways so which on will you take?
Blessed are those who take the righteous one.

As the deer pants for water, so my soul thirsts for You
The living God, the living God.
My tears won’t stop falling, in the daytime or the night
And people say, “Where is Your God”?
I used to go to the house of the Lord
With shouts of joy and praise
Oh those were the days
Chorus
Why are you downcast, oh my soul?
Why so disturbed inside?
Put your trust in the Lord you God
In these lonely times, I will still praise Him
Verse 2
Clear my name, deliver me. You’re the refuge that I seek
From these evil men, these wicked men.
Send Your light, send Your truth. Have you cast me off from You?
These wicked men are trying to bring me down.
Bring me back to your dwelling place,
Let me sing for joy again. For the wicked will not win.
Back to Chorus
Verse 3
As the deep calls to deep.
As the waves begin to roll over me I will sing Your songs.
Enemies have surrounded, they throw their words at me:
“Where is your God? Where is your God?
Have You forgotten about me Lord?
The thunder drowns Your voice… But I still have a choice (Back to Chorus)

1.) Mercy, please have mercy according to Your steadfast love, O God.
My sin is before me. I have sinned against you Lord, my God.
I know You’re right when You judge me
I have done evil in Your sight.
I knew I was wrong when I fell to sins desire
So I won’t even try to justify
2.) Cleanse me, please cleanse me. Only You can wash me white as snow.
Teach me, Your wisdom. Hide Your face from all these things I’ve done.
Create in me a clean heart
Cast me not away from You
Don’t take You Spirit out of my life
Restore me to the joy of knowing You.
3.) Save me, to save others. Open up my mouth to sing Your praise.
My heart is my offering, I give it back to You for all my days.
You’ve no delight in a sacrifice of show
So I give to You my God, all my heart and soul.
Broken apart is a heart You won’t despise
I give to You this broken life.

Verse 1
I had nearly fallen away. My feet had almost stumbled
The wicked seem to have no shame. Their hearts are never humbled
Their bodies are sound, their pockets are full. They scoff at the righteous ones
They say You don’t know. They say You can’t see But where else could I go?
Chorus
Whom have I in heaven but You? There’s nothing on the earth I desire more?
My flesh may fail but You are the strength of my heart forever.
Whom have I in heaven but You? There’s nothing on the earth I desire more?
My flesh may fail but You are the strength of my heart forever.
Verse 2
I walked into the house of the Lord trying to understand
The bitterness in my soul had made me a foolish man
But You didn’t scorn. You held my hand, You led me home again.
You are the shelter the world hasn’t seen I’ll tell everyone I can

I’m not going to sleep ‘til I am whole
‘Til I am wholly Yours

All of my life is held in Your hands
Unfailing love, covers my sin
You will redeem, You will restore
Out of Your grace, forgiveness is poured
