Lyrics by Jake Mentzel and Philip Moyer
Music by Philip Moyer

Every fool says in his heart
That there is no God above
They’re corrupt in every part
But they only talk of love
All their plots and all their plans
Aim to kill the righteous man

Not a one does any good
Not a one has understood

Now the Lord looks down from heaven
Sifting all the thoughts of man
Searching every single heart
For the one who understands
But they all have gone astray
Everyone to his own way

Not a one does any good
Not a one has understood

O rejoice! O be glad!
Do not let your hearts be sad
Lift your voices, God is near
The ungodly are in fear
From Mount Zion, Savior, fly
Raise Your glory to the sky
Bring Your children safely home
O Savior, come

Every day the wicked prey
On the poor as if they’re bread
Soon will come the blessed day
When God strikes their souls with dread
See them tremble then with fear
For the Holy One draws near

God is with the righteous poor
He is with them evermore

O rejoice! O be glad!
Do not let your hearts be sad
Lift your voices, God is near
The ungodly are in fear
From Mount Zion, Savior, fly
Raise Your glory to the sky
Bring Your children safely home
O Savior, come
