The Psalmistry

Original Music for the 150 Psalms


IF THE LORD HAD NOT BEEN ON OUR SIDE (PSALM 124) (CCLI 4437822)

If the Lord had not been on our side, on our side,
If the Lord had not been on our side,
If the Lord had not been on our side, on our side —
Hallelujah, sing praises to God!

1. Men attacked us,
and their hatred could have swallowed us live;
raging torrents could have swept us away.
Angry waters overwhelmed us,
could have ended our days,
if the Lord had not been on our side.

2. Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord,
who has spared us our lives,
who has snatched us from our enemy!
Who has freed us from the snare,
like a bird set free —
Hallelujah, sing praises to God!
