Album: Who Hath Believed Our Report
When I looked upon the wicked men,
I was filled with jealousy.
They prosper in their wickedness,
And they don't seem to suffer like me, O Lord.
No, they don't seem to suffer like me.
See the wicked, their wealth secure,
They live a life of ease.
In vain O Lord, my heart is pure,
What's the use if I keep my hands clean, O Lord,
What's the use if I keep my hands clean?
But when I came into Thy sanctuary,
I understood their fate:
In the judgment they will perish utterly,
Like a dream when one awakes, O Lord,
Like a dream when one awakes.
None upon the earth, O Lord,
Do I desire but thee,
And whom have I in heaven,
Whom have I but thee, O Lord,
Whom have I but thee?
Though my heart and my strength may fail,
Thou my portion wilt bee;
My strength of heart forever more,
Thou my portion wilt be, O Lord,
Thou my portion wilt be.
And when I come into the day of judgment,
I need not fear what comes;
In the judgment day I'll find redemption,
Through Jesus Thy Son, my Lord,
Through Jesus, Thy Son.
