Text: | The Lord Is In His Holy Place |
Author: | James Montgomery |
Tune: | BURFORD |
Media: | MIDI file |
1 The Lord is in His holy place,
And from His throne on high,
He looks upon the human race
With omnipresent eye.
2 He proves the righteous, marks their path;
In Him the weak are strong;
But violence provokes His wrath,
The Lord abhorreth wrong.
3 God on the wicked will rain down
His brimstone, fire, and snares;
The gloom and tempest of His frown—
This portion shall be theirs.
4 The righteous Lord will take delight
Alone in righteousness;
The just are pleasing in His sight,
The humble He will bless.
