Let God arise (Psalm 68)

O God of the Ages, God of all Creation, God who has always been, who is, and who always will be...

Arise O God, that Your enemies are scattered...Your very presence scatters the enemy. Those who hate You quickly flee in terror. Arise O God.

Drive away as smoke... a wisp in the breeze...they are nothing. BVut they flaunt their power and call themselves gods. The are desperate and drunk for power. Rise up O God and call out their folly.

Let them melt like wax in a fire. Loose Your holy fire upon them that they be no more. Let the scourge of their wickedness perish in Your presence.

Then will the righteous rejoice. Then will they exalt Your Name. Rise up O God.

I will sing to the God of my salvation. I will sing praises to Your Name. I will extol You who rides on the clouds. Your name is YAH! I will be glad in Your presence.

O God, You are the Father to orphans, and the Defender of widows.
You give home to the homeless and lead prisoners out of poverty.

You wet out before Your people in the wilderness. At Your presence the earth responds. The mountains shake, the rains pour forth, the very earth quakes. From You is rain pletiful. You resotre Your heritage when we are weary. You provide for the poor.

Give the command O God, and the Good News army rise up. Your enemies flee! ... and Your own divide the spoil. You scatter kings across the face of the earth.

The mountains are Your O God and You choose where Your presence will reside. You live forever. Your chariots or myriads, thousands upon thousands and You, Your holiness lives forever.

You lead captivity captive.

Blessed be Adonai!

You bear our burdens and bring salvation.
You are the God who saves. THrough You alone is there escape from death.

Surely, You will crush the heads of Your enemies. You will summon them from the depths of the sea and wash Your feet in their blood.

You are triumphant!

Your procession parades triuphantly and Your holiness prevails over the earth!
The singers are out front, the musiciansplay from behind. The dancers are in between the grand gala procession. In chorus they shout! "Bless God, Adonai, You are the source of victory!

O God, summon Your strength ad loose it over the earth. Hear my cry for Your righteousness. Bring forth the New Jerusalem that we may all bring our tribute before Your throne.

I will sing to the God over all the kingdoms of the earth!
I will sing praises to Adonai!

Hear my voice, O Ancient of Days. Strength belongs to You alone. Majesty is Yours alone. You are awe. You are all power. Blessed be the Name of the Lord.

Maranatha!
