Psalm 76 | The Wrath of Man

Adapted for singing by Philip Moyer

In Judah God is known
His name is lifted high
He dwells within the land of Peace
His glory fills the sky

When fiery darts were flung
You broke the flaming spears
The valiant men were plundered there
Laid waste upon the fields
You rebuked them in Your wrath
And brought the wicked down
Who can abide Your anger, Lord
When judgments are poured out?

(Chorus)
The wrath of man shall bring Him praise
Who can stand when He appears?
The Lord is great and to be feared
So call upon His name
Pay your vows unto the Lord
Sing His praise forevermore
Take your stand with saints before
And call upon His name

In Heaven from His throne
He thundered in the clouds
The Judge arose with mighty hand
And scattered all the proud
The humble will be saved
He’ll cast the wicked down
The kings will quake with trembling fear
While saints receive their crown

(Chorus) 
The wrath of man shall bring Him praise 
Who can stand when He appears? 
The Lord is great and to be feared 
So call upon His name 
Pay your vows unto the Lord 
Sing His praise forevermore 
Take your stand with saints before 
And call upon His name

Every knee will bow
And every tongue will say
That He is Lord of all
He’ll end their wicked ways
And bring them to their fall
The wrath of man shall bring Him praise

(Chorus) 
The wrath of man shall bring Him praise 
Who can stand when He appears? 
The Lord is great and to be feared 
So call upon His name 
Pay your vows unto the Lord 
Sing His praise forevermore 
Take your stand with saints before 
And call upon His name
