The Gods Shall Die (Psalm 82)

from Cry No Peace by Tarblossom

/

lyrics

In the assembly of the gods our God doth stand; He judgeth them among.
In the assembly of the gods our God doth stand; He judgeth them among.
How long, accepting persons vile, will ye give judgment wrong?

Defend the weak and fatherless; to all the poor and destitute do right.
Defend the weak and fatherless; to all the poor and destitute do right.
The needy and oppressed set free; rid them from ill men's might.

I said that ye are gods, and are
Sons of the Highest all:
But ye shall die like men, and as
One of the princes fall.

O God, do thou raise up thyself,
The earth to judgment call:
For thou, as thine inheritance,
Shalt take the nations all.

They know not, nor will they understand; in darkness they walk on:
They know not, nor will they understand; in darkness they walk on:
All the foundations of the earth out of their course are gone.
