Psalm 129

[instrumental] [verse 1] They oppressed me all my life So now says Israel They oppressed me all my life Yet they won’t prevail They ploughed my back Compassion they lack So the Lord Cut the cord Of the wicked [instrumental] [chorus] The blessings of God be upon you! We bless you in the name of the Lord! None who pass by Will say such a lie And none spare a cry For the wicked [verse 2] They oppressed me all my life So now shame them They oppressed me all my life So now condemn Like grass they lie Wither and die Good fellows Never know Of the wicked [instrumental] [chorus as an outro]
