EN 1040 Fools in Their Heart Have Said
Ps.53.1
Versi Version 1
1
Fools in their heart have said,
There is no God of might;
Corrupt are they and base their deeds,
In evil they delight.
2
God looked from Heav’n above
On all the human race
To see if any understood,
If any sought His face.
3
They all are gone aside,
Corruption doth abound;
There is not one that doeth good,
Not even one is found.
4
These men of evil deeds
Will they no knowledge gain,
Who feed upon my people’s woes
And prayer to God disdain?
5
The day is drawing nigh
When they shall fear and quail
For God shall scatter and destroy
Those who His saints assail.
6
Yea, God will put to shame
And make them flee away,
For He will cast them off in wrath
And fill them with dismay.
7
O would that Zion’s help
Were out of Zion come!
O would that God might early bring
His captive people home!
8
When God from distant lands
His exiled ones shall bring,
His people shall exultant be,
And gladly they shall sing.
