God is still on the throne, Christ is coming

Song by Rich Mullins Taken from Psalm 2, Isaiah 40:12-17, Isaiah 8:11-17

Why do the nations rage?
Why do they plot and scheme?
Their bullets can't stop the prayers we pray
In the Name of the Prince of Peace
We walk in faith and remember long ago
How they killed Him and then how on the third day He arose
Things may look bad
Things may look grim
But all these things must pass
Except the things that are of Him

Where are the nails that pierced His hands?
Well the nails have turned to rust but behold the Man
He is risen and He reigns
In the hearts of the children rising up in His name
Where are the thorns that drew His blood?
Well the thorns have turned to dust
But not so the love
He has given
It remains
In the hearts of the children who will love while the nations rage

The LORD in heaven laughs
He knows what is to come
While all the chiefs of state plan their big attacks
Against His anointed One
The church of God
She will not bend her knees
To the gods of this world though they promise her peace
She stands her ground
Stands firm on the Rock
Watch their walls tumble down
When she lives out His love

Psalm 2:12 Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, and ye perish from the way, when His wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in Him.
