Psalm 110

W. W. J. VanOene, 1972

  1. The LORD unto my Lord these words has spoken:
    “Sit Thou up on the throne at My right hand
    Till I the power of Thy foes have broken,
    And Thou upon his neck Thy foot shall plant.”
  2. To Thee the LORD will send forth out of Zion
    The scepter of authority and might.
    Amidst Thy enemies show Thy dominion
    And rule them by Thy own God-given right.
  3. Thy people will be wholly glad and willing
    When Thou to Thy great battle callest them.
    Thy youth will come, as dew when day is dawning;
    Arrayed in holiness are Thy young men.
  4. The LORD has made an oath He will not sever:
    “After the order of Melchizedek
    Thou art a Priest, a Priest to Me for ever.”
    This He has sworn; He will not take it back.
  5. The LORD is at Thy right hand; He will shatter
    The kings when He comes on the day of wrath,
    And all the nations He will judge and slaughter;
    He crushes those who stand up in Thy path.
  6. Brooks by the way refresh Him with their water;
    He will in His campaign not faint or fall.
    He will not waver in His steps nor falter,
    But will lift up His head and rule o’er all.
