Steel Pulse - Chant A Psalm


Song Lyrics

Biblical Reference

Rejoice rejoice! Matthew 2:10 - When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.
Good tidings I bring you Luke 2:10 - And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
Hear ye a message to you my friend
Voices cry invoking your angels
When pressure drop it cannot conquer dread, no
So blow away your bluesy feeling
Spirits say take the world off your shoulders
One foot in the grave is a foolish step to take
 
Who sow in tears shall reap in joy Psalm 126:5 - They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
Wise man doctrines assure your safety
No more stumbling block back stabbers get down
 
To the righteous revealed
The secrets of the scriptures
Deuteronomy 29:29 - The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.
Psalm 25:14 - The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.
Proverbs 3:32 - For the froward is abomination to the LORD: but his secret is with the righteous.
Daniel 2:22 - He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.
The wicked dem portion is vanity Job 20:28-29 - The increase of his house shall depart, and his goods shall flow away in the day of his wrath. This is the portion of a wicked man from God, and the heritage appointed unto him by God.
Psalm 11:6 - Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and an horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup.

Note: The name 'Lucifer' (Latin: literally meaning 'light bearing') has not always been associated with the fallen angel, Satan. Originally, it was simply the Roman name of the planet
Venus, the 'morning star' that rose just before the sun. ... In Isaiah 14:12, we find the Hebrew phrase, "HeYLeL BeN-ShaCHaR", meaning 'bright son of the morning/dawn' (i.e. 'bright/glowing morning star'). In the Greek version of the Old Testament (the Septuagint), this was translated as 'Phosphorus' (the Greek name of the morning star), and thence translated 'Lucifer' in the Latin Vulgate bible. Isaiah chapter 14 probably condemns the arrogance of the kings of Babylon who considered themselves glorious as the morning star, yet fell to earth. However, due to a confusion of the passages Isaiah 14:12, Luke 10:18 and Revelation 12:7-10, the name 'Lucifer' became applied to the Devil.
