(short musical intro)
(Verse 1)
Why do the nations rage
And the people plot a vain thing?
The kings of the earth take their stand
And rulers conspire together
Against the Lord and His Anointed One:
(Chorus)
But He who sits in the heavens laughs
The Lord ridicules them in contempt
Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth?
Tell me if you have understanding, who marked off it's dimensions?
Who laid the cornerstone
Who shut the sea with doors
As the morning stars sang together
And all the angels shouted for joy?
(Verse 2)
Ask of Me and I will give to you
The nations for your inheritance
And the ends of the earth
For you to possess
Worship the Lord and serve Him with reverence
(Chorus)
But He who sits in the heavens laughs
The Lord ridicules them in contempt
Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth?
Tell me if you have understanding, who marked off it's dimensions?
Who laid the cornerstone
Who shut the sea with doors
As the morning stars sang together
And all the angels shouted for joy?
(Bridge)[softer in a different melody, up 1/5]
Kiss the Chosen One
The Son, lest He be angry
And you perish in the way
Blessed are all who take refuge in Him
[build to Outro with crescendo]
(Outro)
But He who sits in the heavens laughs
The Lord ridicules them in contempt.
But He who sits in the heavens laughs.
But He who sits in the heavens laughs
But He who sits in the heavens laughs.
