Bow The Heavens (Psalm 144) Lyrics

Blessed be the hands that train for war

The fingers that learn the sword

A fortress rising, a sheltering shore

My Redeemer through trials below

What is man that You take note

The fleeting breath, the shifting ghost?

Like shadows cast on dawn's first light

We fade, we flicker, and lose the fight

Bend the heavens, Lord, come down

Touch the mountains till they drown

Scatter darkness, break the skies

Hear our trembling, yearning cries

Stretch Your hand from realms above

Deliver me with endless love

For fleeting life, Your strength I claim

Forever I will sing Your name

A song of praise I lift to You

A harp of ten strings, pure and true

Rescue from waters deep and wide

Guide me, Savior, as my tide

Bow the heavens, cast fire below

Let the storm of mercy grow

Raise the poor, lift the frail

Your love eternal will never pale

Stretch Your hand from realms above

Deliver me with endless love

For fleeting life, Your strength I claim

Forever I will sing Your name

Your hands hold the earth and skies

I am Yours till the day I rise

Forever anchored in Your grace

The fleeting man meets endless space.
