CHAT / tower

On a rock too high for me to reach
set me on high, O you who have been my refuge, my tower against the foe.

Let me dwell in your tent for ever
and hide in the shelter of your wings.
For you, O God, hear my prayer,
grant me the heritage of those who fear you.

May you lengthen the life of the king;
may his years cover many generations.
May he ever sit enthroned before God:
bid love and truth be his protection.

So I will always praise your name
and day after day fulfill my vows.

CHIME / body pines

O God you are my God for you I long, for you my soul is thirsting. My body pines for you like a dry weary land without water.

O God, you are my God, for you I long;

My body pines for you
like a dry, weary land without water.

CHEERIO / arrow

He will search who searches the mind and who knows the depths of the heart. God has shot them with his arrow and has dealt them sudden wounds. Their own tongue has brought them to ruin and all who see them mock.

2 Hear my voice, O God, as I complain,
guard my life from dread of the foe.
3 Hide me from the band of the wicked,
from the throng of those who do evil.

4 They sharpen their tongues like swords;
they aim bitter words like arrows
5 to shoot at the innocent from ambush,
shooting suddenly and recklessly.

6 They scheme their evil course;
they conspire to lay secret snares.
They say: “Who will see us?
7 Who can search out our crimes?”

He will search who searches the mind
and knows the depths of the heart.
8 God has shot them with his arrow
and dealt them sudden wounds.
9 Their own tongue has brought them to ruin
and all who see them mock.

10 Then will all men fear;
they will tell what God has done.
They will understand God’s deeds.
11 The just will rejoice in the Lord
and fly to him for refuge.
All the upright hearts will glory

A

CHOO CHOO / fire and water

You let foes ride over our heads;
we went through fire and through water

For you, O God, have tested us,
you have tried us as silver is tried;

you led us, God, into the snare;
you laid a heavy burden on our backs.

You let foes ride over our heads;
we went through fire and through water
but then you brought us relief.

Burnt offering I bring to your house;
to you I will pay my vows,
the vows which my lips have uttered,
which my mouth spoke in my distress.

CHIEF / highway

Make a highway for the CHIEF who rides on the clouds.

Let God arise, let his foes be scattered.
Let those who hate him flee before him.
.3 As smoke is blown away so will they be blown away;
like wax that melts before the fire,
so the wicked shall perish at the presence of God.
.4 But the just shall rejoice at the presence of God,
they shall exult and dance for joy.
.5 O sing to the Lord, make music to his name;
make a highway for him who rides on the clouds.
Rejoice in the Lord, exult at his presence.
.6 Father of the orphan, defender of the widow,
such is God in his holy place.
.7 God gives the lonely a home to live in;
he leads the prisoners forth into freedom;
but rebels must dwell in a parched land.
.8 When you went forth, O God, at the head of your people,
/.9 when you marched across the desert, the earth trembled:
the heavens melted at the presence of God,
at the presence of God, Israel’s God.
.10 You poured down, O God, a generous rain;
when your people were starved you gave them new life.
.11 It was there that your people found a home,
prepared in your goodness, O God, for the poor.
.12 The Lord gives the word to the bearers of good tidings:
“The Almighty has defeated a numberless army
.13 and kings and armies are in flight, in flight
while you were at rest among the sheepfolds.”
.14 At home the women already share the spoil.
They are covered with silver as the wings of a dove,
its feathers brilliant with shining gold
.15 and jewels flashing like snow on Mount Zalmon.
.16 The mountains of Bashan are mighty mountains;
highridged
mountains are the mountains of Bashan.
.17 Why look with envy, you highridged
mountains,
at the mountain where God has chosen to dwell?
It is there that the Lord shall dwell for ever.
.18 The chariots of God are thousands upon thousands.
The Lord has come from Sinai to the holy place.
.19 You have gone up on high; you have taken captives,
receiving men and women in tribute, O God,
even those who rebel, into your dwelling, O Lord.
.20 May the Lord be blessed day after day.
He bears our burdens, God our savior;
.21 this God of ours is a God who saves.
The Lord our God holds the keys of death.
.22 And God will smite the head of his foes,
the crown of those who persist in their sins.
.23 The Lord said: “I will bring them back from Bashan;
I will bring them back from the depth of the sea.
.24 Then your feet will tread in their blood
and the tongues of your dogs take their share of the foe.”
.25 They see your solemn procession, O God,
the procession of my God, of my king, to the sanctuary:
.26 the singers in the forefront, the musicians coming last,
between them, maidens sounding their timbrels.
.27 “In festive gatherings, bless the Lord;
bless God, O you who are Israel’s sons.”
.28 There is Benjamin, least of the tribes, at the head,
Judah’s princes, a mighty throng,
Zebulun’s princes, Naphtali’s princes.
.29 Show forth, O God, show forth your might,
your might, O God, which you have shown for us.
.30 For the sake of your temple high in Jerusalem
may nations come to you bringing their tribute.
.31 Threaten the wild beast that dwells in the reeds,
the bands of the mighty and rulers of the peoples.
Let them bow down offering silver.
Scatter the peoples who delight in war.
.32 Envoys will make their way from Egypt;
Ethiopia will stretch out her hands to God.
.33 Kingdoms of the earth, sing to God, praise the Lord
.34 who rides on the heavens, the ancient heavens.
He thunders his voice, his mighty voice.
.35 Come, acknowledge the power of God.
His glory is on Israel; his might is in the skies.
.36 God is to be feared in his holy place.
He is the Lord, Israel’s God.
He gives strength and power to his people.
Blessed be God!

CHEAP poison

For food they gave me poison. In my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.

Let their table be a snare to them and their festive banquets a trap

Let their eyes grow dim and blind;
let their limbs tremble and shake.

Pour out your anger upon them,
let the heat of your fury overtake them.

Your foes have made uproar in your house of prayer:

they have set up their emblems, their foreign emblems,
high above the entrance to the sanctuary.

Their axes have battered the wood of its doors.
They have struck together with hatchet and pickax.

they have razed and profaned the place where you dwell.

KILL / boast

to the boastful I say: ‘Do not boast,’
to the wicked: ‘Do not flaunt your strength,

When I reach the appointed time,
then I will judge with justice.

Though the earth and all who dwell in it may rock,
it is I who uphold its pillars.

to the boastful I say: ‘Do not boast,’
to the wicked: ‘Do not flaunt your strength,
do not flaunt your strength on high.
Do not speak with insolent pride.’ “

For neither from the east nor the west,
nor from desert or mountains comes judgment,
but God himself is the judge.
One he humbles, another he exalts.

KOOK / withheld sleep

You withheld sleep from my eyes.
I was troubled, I could not speak

.2 I cry aloud to God,
cry aloud to God that he may hear me.

My hands were raised at night without ceasing;
my soul refused to be consoled.
.4 I remembered my God and I groaned.
I pondered and my spirit fainted.
.5 You withheld sleep from my eyes.
I was troubled, I could not speak.
.6 I thought of the days of long ago
and remembered the years long past.
.7 At night I mused within my heart.
I pondered and my spirit questioned.
.8 “Will the Lord reject us for ever?
Will he show us his favor no more?
.9 Has his love vanished for ever?
Has his promise come to an end?
.10 Does God forget his mercy
or in anger withhold his compassion?”
.11 I said: “This is what causes my grief;
that the way of the Most High has changed.”
.12 I remember the deeds of the Lord,
I remember your wonders of old,
.13 I muse on all your works
and ponder your mighty deeds.
.14 Your ways, O God, are holy.
What god is as great as our God?
.15 You are the God who works wonders.
You showed your power among the peoples.
.16 Your strong arm redeemed your people,
the sons of Jacob and Joseph.
.17 The waters saw you, O God,
the waters saw you and trembled;
the depths were moved with terror.
.18 The clouds poured down rain,
the skies sent forth their voice;
your arrows flashed to and fro.
.19 Your thunder rolled round the sky,
your flashes lighted up the world.
The earth was moved and trembled
.20 when your way led through the sea,
your path through the mighty waters
and no one saw your footprints.
.21 You guided your people like a flock
by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

CUFF / not faithful

For their hearts were not truly with him; they were not faithful to his covenant.

But the words they spoke were mere flattery; they lied to him with their lips.

For their hearts were not truly with him; they were not faithful to his covenant.

Yet he who is full of compassion forgave them their sin and spared them. So often he held back his anger when he might have stirred up his rage.

He remembered they were only men, a breath that passes never to return.

CAP / blood

Let us see the nations around us repaid with vengeance for the blood of your servants that was shed.

1 O God, the nations have invaded your land,
they have profaned your holy temple.
They have made Jerusalem a heap of ruins.
2 They have handed over the bodies of your servants
as food to feed the birds of heaven
and the flesh of your faithful to the beasts of the earth.

3 They have poured out blood like water in Jerusalem;
no one is left to bury the dead.
4 We have become the taunt of our neighbors,
the mockery and scorn of those who surround us.
5 How long, O Lord? Will you be angry for ever;
how long will your anger burn like fire?

6 Pour out your rage on the nations,
the nations that do not know you.
Pour out your rage on the kingdoms
that do not call on your name,
7 for they have devoured Jacob
and laid waste the land where they dwell.

8 Do not hold the guilt of our father against us.
Let your compassion hasten to meet us;
we are left in the depths of distress.
9 O God our savior, come to our help.
Come for the sake of the glory of your name.
O Lord our God, forgive us our sins;
rescue us for the sake of your name.

10 Why should the nations say: “Where is their God?”

Let us see the nations around us repaid
with vengeance for the blood of your servants that was shed!
11 Let the groans of the prisoners come before you;
let your strong arm reprieve those condemned to die.

12 Pay back to our neighbors seven times over
the taunts with which they taunted you, O Lord.
13 But we, your people, the flock of your pasture,
will give you thanks for ever and ever.
We will tell your praise from age to age

FUD / honey

But Israel I would feed with finest wheat and fill them with honey from the rock

I am the Lord your God,
who brought you from the land of Egypt.
Open wide your mouth and I will fill it.

But my people did not heed my voice
and Israel would not obey,
so I left them in their stubbornness of heart
to follow their own designs.

O that my people would heed me,
that Israel would walk in my ways!
At once I would subdue their foes,
turn my hand against their enemies.

The Lord’s enemies would cringe at their feet
and their subjection would last for ever.
But Israel I would feed with finest wheat
and fill them with honey from the rock.”

defend the afflicted and the needy.
4 Rescue the weak and the poor;
set them free from the hand of the wicked.
5 Unperceiving, they grope in the darkness
and the order of the world is shaken.
6 I have said to you: ‘You are gods
and all of you, sons of the Most High.’
7 And yet, you shall die like men,
you shall fall like any earthly princes.”
8 Arise, O God, judge the earth,
for you rule all the nations.

FAME / midian

Treat them like Midian, like Sisera, ike Jabin at the River Kishon

Treat them like Midian, like Sisera,
like Jabin at the River Kishon,
the men who were destroyed at Endor,
whose bodies rotted on the ground.

Make their captains like Oreb and Zeeb,
all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,

the men who said: “Let us take
the fields of God for ourselves.”
My God, scatter them like chaff,
drive them like straw in the wind!

As fire that burns away the forest,
as flame that sets the mountains ablaze,
drive them away with your tempest
and fill them with terror at your storm.
Cover their faces with shame,
till they seek your name, O Lord.

to God, the living God.

and the swallow a nest for her brood;
she lays her young by your altars,
Lord of hosts, my king and my God.

5 They are happy, who dwell in your house,
for ever singing your praise.
6 They are happy, whose strength is in you,
in whose hearts are the roads to Zion.

7 As they go through the Bitter Valley
they make it a place of springs
(the autumn rain covers it with blessings).
8 They walk with ever growing strength,
they will see the God of gods in Zion.

9 O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer,
give ear, O God of Jacob.
10 Turn your eyes, O God, our shield,
look on the face of your anointed.

11 One day within your courts
is better than a thousand elsewhere.
The threshold of the house of God
I prefer to the dwellings of the wicked.

12 For the Lord God is a rampart, a shield;
he will give us his favor and glory.
The Lord will not refuse any good
to those who walk without blame.

13 Lord, God of hosts,
happy the man who trusts in you

so that I may walk in your truth.
Guide my heart to fear your name.

12 I will praise you, Lord my God, with all my heart
and glorify your name for ever;
13 for your love to me has been great:
you have saved me from the depths of the grave.

14 The proud have risen against me;
ruthless men seek my life;
to you they pay no heed.

15 But you, God of mercy and compassion,
slow to anger, O Lord,
abounding in love and truth,
16 turn and take pity on me.
