Eternal Anthem is on Spotify, iTunes, and YouTube!
This is an experimental version of the first portion of Psalm 18. It is longer than most songs, and while it does tend to wander a little, I have yet to listen without tearing up at the might of Yahweh!
This song will be released with the next “The Psalms Resound” album, coming soon.

[Intro]
I love you, Yahweh, my strength //
Yahweh is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer //
my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge //
my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower //
I call on Yahweh, who is worthy to be praised //
and I am saved //
from my enemies //
[Verse 1]
The cords of death surrounded me //
The floods of ungodliness made me afraid //
The cords of Sheol were around me //
The snares of death came on me //
[Pre-Chorus]
In my distress I called on Yahweh //
and cried to my God //
He heard my voice out of his temple //
My cry before him came into his ears //
[Chorus]
Then the earth shook and trembled //
The foundations also of the mountains quaked and were shaken //
because he was angry //
Smoke went out of his nostrils //
Consuming fire came out of his mouth //
Coals were kindled by it //
[Verse 2]
He bowed the heavens also, and came down //
Thick darkness was under his feet //
He rode on a cherub, and flew //
Yes, he soared on the wings of the wind //
[Bridge]
He made darkness his hiding place //
his pavilion around him //
darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies //
At the brightness before him his thick clouds passed //
hailstones and coals of fire //
[Chorus]
Yahweh also thundered in the sky //
The Most High uttered his voice: hailstones and coals of fire //
He sent out his arrows, and scattered them //
He routed them with great lightning bolts //
[Verse 3]
Then the channels of waters appeared //
The foundations of the world were laid bare //
at your rebuke, Yahweh //
at the blast of the breath of your nostrils //
[Pre-Chorus]
He sent from on high //
He took me //
He drew me out of many waters //
He delivered me from my strong enemy //
from those who hated me //
for they were too mighty for me //
[Verse 4]
They came on me in the day of my calamity //
but Yahweh was my support //
He brought me out also into a large place //
He delivered me, because he delighted in me //
