156. Wickedness and Retribution

Lyrics

1. Do ye, O men, speak righteousness
And upright judgment mete?
Nay, in your hearts is wickedness,
And in your hands deceit.

2. The wicked, from their earliest days,
In sin are gone astray,
With froward heart, in foolish pride,
From wisdom turned away.

3. The God of vengeance will destroy
The wicked from His sight;
The Lord will bring to nought their power
And scatter all their might.

4. The good shall triumph and rejoice,
And this shall be confessed:
On earth the God of justice reigns,
And righteousness is blessed.
