The Father is found

Greatness

His name is great in Israel

A dwelling place in Zion

There he broke the arrows

Broke the flashing arrows

There he broke the shield

Broke the heavy sword

The weapons of war are gone

The weapons of war are gone

Than the everlasting mountains

Stouthearted

Stripped

Stripped of their golden spoil

They sank

They sank into final sleep

Numb hands

The men of war had no hands

Broke the flashing arrows

There he broke the shield

Broke the heavy sword

The weapons of war are gone

The weapons of war are gone

At thy rebuke

At thy rebuke

Rider and horse lay stunned

Rider and horse lay stunned

Terrible art thou

Who can stand?

Who can stand?

When thy anger is roused

When thy anger is roused

The earth feared

The earth was still

God arose to save the low

The oppressed

Save all the oppressed

Of the earth

Saved from the earth

There he broke the shield

Broke the heavy sword

The weapons of war are gone

The weapons of war are gone

Terrible to the kings
