For Who Is God, But the Lord - Psalm 18: 31-40

For who is God, but the Lord? the God of wonders who is glorious He the rock of ages never fails always striding forth so victorious This God brought me His strength making blameless the route of my way pointing me in His sure direction proving to myself this God my stay My feet God's made like dear's feet took me up high setting myself secure gives training so my hands are warlike and ready for all it takes to endure My Lord has given me salvation's shield with His right hand there for support receiving the Lord's gentleness makes me great so my steps didn't slip standing in God's court Fighting my enemies overtaking them turning never back till they're beat deal with them so they'll never rise falling down right under my feet God equipped only with His strength so I'll be able to defeat those that oppose they hated God's own but they fell under God's power came upon His foes (For who is God, but the Lord? And who is a rock, except our God?— the God who equipped me with strength and made my way blameless. He made my feet like the feet of a deer and set me secure on the heights. He trains my hands for war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze. You have given me the shield of your salvation, and your right hand supported me, and your gentleness made me great. You gave a wide place for my steps under me, and my feet did not slip. I pursued my enemies and overtook them, and did not turn back till they were consumed. I thrust them through so that they were not able to rise; they fell under my feet. For you equipped me with strength for the battle; you made those who rise against me sink under me. You made my enemies turn their backs to me, and those who hated me I destroyed.) Psalm 18: 31-40 (ESV)
