Isaiah 60

Isaiah 52/Reckless Love

"Nothing I Hold On To" is by United Pursuit. I definitely don't claim to own any of their lyrics. Just a collaboration of the Psalms and some of my favorite songs.

Psalm 56/57 (Nothing I Hold On To)

LYRICS:
PSALM 57/58

I’m not going to pretend like I know what to do. 
I’m not going to act like I could, or that you need me to help you. 

	But I’m going to look you in the eye
	I’m going to do what I can to stand by your side
	I will no longer turn a deaf ear or a blind eye
	No no no, no no no, I’ve heard your cry

I’m not going to say that I understand
I don’t come forward with a plan, just open hands
As we make our way to the Promised Land
I’m not going to say that I understand
	No no no, no no no, but I will stand 

You’re in the midst of the lions, the place where you’re forced to dwell
By the ravenous men whose teeth are spears and arrows 
They dug a grave, ripped open a gate to hell
But they don’t know they’ve fallen into the pit themselves 

Do you rulers indeed speak justly? No. 
Do you judge people with equity? Ha. 
	No no no, no no no in your hear you devise injustice
	No no no, no no no, and your hands they mete out judgment 

When they draw their bows, break their arrows 

No no no, no no no in your hear you devise injustice
	No no no, no no no, and your hands they mete out judgment 

Break the teeth in their mouths, O God
Tear out the fangs of those lions!
Let them vanish like water that flows away, 
On Your command, they cannot stay

Psalm 57/58

First mostly original. (Derived from Psalm 43)
