The Psalmistry

Original Music for the 150 Psalms


FROM OUR YOUTH, LORD (PSALM 129) (CCLI 4438137)

1. From our youth, Lord,
they've oppressed us,
but they have not prevailed.
They have plowed our
back with furrows,
but in all they have failed.

For our Lord God,
You are with us,
and the victory is ours!
You are with us.

2. May the evil
that attacks us
ever be turned to shame.
May it never
hear the blessing
of Your wonderful name!

May it wither
without growing--
Be but grass that has died.
You are with us,
Our Lord.
