I have set my king on Zion. Three thoughts on the consequences
Jesus is our God and king
He lived and died new life to bring
He shall return judgement to bring
When the trumpet loud shall ring
Jesus lives and is our king
He who died and rose now reigns
He’ll come again judgement to bring
Upon us all as he ordains
Jesus lives! He is the king
Who gave himself for sin to die.
He shall return judgement to bring
Be ready now, the end is nigh!
- Why do the nations rage, and the people plot a vain thing?
The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord and against his anointed, saying,
“Let us break their bonds in pieces and cast away their cords from us.”
He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; the Lord shall hold them in derision. Then he shall speak to them in his wrath, and distress them in his deep displeasure:
“Yet I have set my King on my holy hill of Zion. I will declare the decree:
The Lord has said to me, ‘You are my son, today I have begotten you. Ask of me, and I will give you the nations for your inheritance, and the ends of the earth for your possession. You shall break them with a rod of iron; you shall dash them to pieces like a potter’s vessel.’ ”
Now therefore, be wise, O kings; be instructed, you judges of the earth. Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little.
Blessed are all those who put their trust in him. ↩︎
