Full sung version coming soon.
Lyrics
God presides in the great assembly He judges amongst the gods
How long will you judge unjustly And show partiality to the wicked Defend the weak, the poor, and the fatherless Maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed
Rescue the weak and needy Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked They don’t know neither do they understand They walk back and forth in darkness All the foundations of the earth are shaken
I said, You are gods All of you are sons of the Most High Nevertheless you shall die like men And fall like one of the rulers
Arise, God, judge the earth For you inherit all of the nations God presides in the great assembly He judges amongst the gods
How long will you judge unjustly Show partiality to the wicked Defend the weak and the poor Maintain the rights of the oppressed
Rescue the weak and needy Deliver them from the hand of the wicked Arise, God, judge the earth For you inherit all of the nations
All the foundations of the earth are shaken God presides in the great assembly
