Sing to the King (Psalm 68)
Verse 1
Sing to the King, lift up His name,
Ride on the clouds, His glory proclaim.
Righteous and mighty, His love never fades,
He reigns forever, our hearts He invades.
Pre-Chorus
Rejoice, O Israel, the Ark has come near,
David has brought Him, Jerusalem cheers!
Chorus
Holy is the One who defends the broken,
Father to the fatherless, His heart is open.
Through every loss, He’s our comfort and guide,
Sing to the King, let His praises arise!
Verse 2
He sees the widow, her cry He will hear,
His arm is mighty, He draws ever near.
Though lands may crumble, His promise will stand,
He leads His people with a faithful hand.
Pre-Chorus
Rejoice, O Israel, the Ark has come near,
David has brought Him, Jerusalem cheers!
Chorus
Holy is the One who defends the broken,
Father to the fatherless, His heart is open.
Through every loss, He’s our comfort and guide,
Sing to the King, let His praises arise!
Bridge
He scatters the foe, His power displayed,
Mountains will tremble, His name be praised!
From Zion He reigns, our hope and our song,
Forever we’ll worship, to Him we belong!
Chorus
Holy is the One who defends the broken,
Father to the fatherless, His heart is open.
Through every loss, He’s our comfort and guide,
Sing to the King, let His praises arise!
Tag
Sing to the King, sing to the King,
Let all creation His glory bring!
Sing to the King, sing to the King,
Forever our Savior, forever we sing!
Outro
Rejoice, O Israel, His love will endure,
Father and Defender, our God is sure.

Song Notes
• Inspiration: The lyrics draw directly from Psalm 68:4–5, which calls for singing to God, who “rides through the deserts” and is a “father to the fatherless, a defender of widows.” The imagery of God’s majesty and compassion is central.
• Provided Themes:
• “Rejoice, Israel, for David has brought Him to Jerusalem” is woven into the pre-chorus, referencing David’s procession with the Ark (2 Samuel 6), tying it to the psalm’s possible historical context.
• “He will defend your widows and be father to your fatherless” is emphasized in the chorus, highlighting God’s care for the vulnerable.
• “Though you lose your land, He will comfort and guide you” is reflected in Verse 2 and the chorus, addressing loss and God’s guidance.
• Musical Suggestions (for worship leaders):
• Key: Start in G or D for accessibility.
• Tempo: Moderate (around 72–80 BPM) to allow for reflection, building to a faster bridge.
• Instrumentation: Begin with acoustic guitar or piano, adding pads and strings in the chorus, and full band (drums, electric guitar) in the bridge for a climactic feel.
• Dynamics: Soft and intimate in verses, swelling in the chorus, and triumphant in the bridge/tag.
This song is designed to be sung in a corporate worship setting, encouraging believers to celebrate God’s majesty and trust in His care, while staying rooted in the biblical text and the provided themes.
