[Intro]
Psalm 55:22 says:
"Cast your burden on the Lord
And he will sustain you;
He will never permit
The righteous to be moved."
This is a promise from God
Purchased by the blood of Jesus Christ
And in this, God is glorified
[Verse 1: Chris Cobbins]
Gracious God please hear our cry
(Hear our cry, Lord, hear our cry, Lord)
Restlessly we moan inside
(Moan inside, we moan inside)
Oppression makes us wonder why
(We wonder why, wonder why)
Be glorified
Be glorified
[Verse 2: Chris Cobbins]
Hate surrounds us everyday
(Everyday y'all, true indeed)
If we had wings we'd fly away
(Fly, fly away, fly, fly away)
Find a place to rest and stay
(We need rest, Lord, we need rest)
Be glorified
Be glorified
[Interlude: Shai Linne]
From Him and through Him and to Him is everything
Surely to God be the glory alone
To God be the glory alone
From Him and through Him and to Him is everything
Surely to God be the glory alone
To God be the glory alone
[Verse 3: Chris Cobbins]
In the city we see strife
(We see strife Lord, we see strife)
Violent disregard for life
(Violence in the city, violence in the city)
Lord, come down and make things right
(Come quickly, Lord, come quickly, Lord)
Be glorified
Yeah
[Verse 4: Chris Cobbins]
Betrayed by foes we thought were friends
Cause godliness was just pretend
Lord, repay them for their sins
(Pay it back, Lord, pay it back)
Be glorified
Be glorified
[Flow: Shai Linne]
Yeah, yeah
We live in hard times, a diabolical era
God's enemy has caused psychological terror
A few observations: it's the true God they hatin'
The plot of Satan to intoxicate the population
On the way to their graves, they're slaves
To the prince of the power of the airwaves
His tunes are blasphemous, the fumes are hazardous
The ma**es get consumed, it's doom for the pacifist
We are not immune, we were goons and savages
The bridegroom snatched us from the tomb like Lazarus
So nowadays we conspire in the laboratory
Plotting ways for Messiah to grab the glory
It's mandatory, cause Jesus owns everything
We get to sing precious things when we rep the King
To those living hard Christian lives going through
I'm pointing you Psalm 55:22
[Verse 5: Chris Cobbins]
Cast your burdens on the Lord
He will give strength to endure
(He gives strength, y'all, he gives strength, y'all)
You'll stand firm forevermore
(Stand firm, stand firm)
He's glorified
He's glorified
[Verse 6: Chris Cobbins]
God is just He will repay
At the cross or on judgement day
Those who know Him love to say
Be glorified
Be glorified
