Psalm 36 : The Shadows of Light Blues

2 months ago
32

** Psalm 36, written by David, contrasts the wickedness of mankind with the steadfast love and righteousness of God. David likely composed this psalm during a time of deep reflection on the state of the world around him, recognizing the pervasive sin but also the overwhelming goodness of God's character. The psalm serves as a powerful reminder that while the wicked may seem to prosper, God's love and justice prevail in the end. This blues song, "Shadows and Light Blues," captures the essence of Psalm 36, blending the ancient text with a soulful, modern sound.

** Psalm 36 (WEB):

An inner sanctuary is in my heart about the disobedience of the wicked:
There is no fear of God before his eyes.
For he flatters himself in his own eyes,
too much to detect and hate his sin.
The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit.
He has ceased to be wise and to do good.
He plots iniquity on his bed.
He sets himself in a way that is not good.
He doesn't abhor evil.
Your loving kindness, Yahweh, is in the heavens.
Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
Your righteousness is like the mountains of God.
Your judgments are like a great deep.
Yahweh, you preserve man and animal.
How precious is your loving kindness, God!
The children of men take refuge under the shadow of your wings.
They shall be abundantly satisfied with the abundance of your house.
You will make them drink of the river of your pleasures.
For with you is the spring of life.
In your light we will see light.
Oh continue your loving kindness to those who know you,
your righteousness to the upright in heart.
Don’t let the foot of pride come against me.
Don’t let the hand of the wicked drive me away.
There the workers of iniquity are fallen.
They are thrust down and shall not be able to rise.

** Psalm 36 : The Shadows of Light Blues Lyrics:

Verse 1
There's no fear of God in the eyes of the wicked
Flattering themselves in their own sin
Words of deceit from their mouths they speak
They’ve ceased to be wise no good they seek

Chorus
Your loving kindness Yahweh reaches the skies
Faithfulness oh Lord in Your eyes
Your righteousness stands like mountains high
Judgments deep as oceans none can deny

Verse 2
Plotting in darkness on their bed of lies
They set their feet where evil thrives
But Your loving kindness it’s in the heavens
In Your shadow we find our refuge and rest

Bridge
With You Lord is the spring of life
In Your light we see the light
Don't let the prideful tread on me
Keep me safe from the hands of the wicked’s deceit

Chorus
Your loving kindness Yahweh reaches the skies
Faithfulness oh Lord in Your eyes
Your righteousness stands like mountains high
Judgments deep as oceans none can deny

Outro
The workers of iniquity they’ve fallen down
Thrust down never to rise from the ground
But in Your love we find our place
In Your light we see Your face
