Verse 1 My head is lifted high above The storm that rages near; I sing within His holy courts, For Christ has calmed my fear. Though winds may howl and shadows fall, His joy shall be my song; Rejoice! For in His steadfast love, The weak are made so strong. Chorus When nations rage and evil schemes Defy His holy way, The GodSmacks fall on rebel hearts— But we trust and obey. Rejoice in trials, rejoice in grace, His hand will never sway; He guards His flock through judgment’s storm And leads us all the way! Verse 2 Though foes surround and darkness speaks, His Word shall be my light; A hope that cannot be o’erthrown, A shield against the night. When nations shake and rumors rise, My heart shall not dismay; For Jesus reigns, and by His grace, I walk the narrow way. Chorus When nations rage and evil schemes Defy His holy way, The GodSmacks fall on rebel hearts— But we trust and obey. Rejoice in trials, rejoice in grace, His hand will never sway; He guards His flock through judgment’s storm And leads us all the way! Verse 3 When grief and loss assail my soul, And tears unbidden flow, I rest in Him whose pierced hands Have triumphed o’er the foe. The cross declares, the tomb is bare, His victory is mine; So in the valley or the storm, His strength will still incline. Chorus When nations rage and evil schemes Defy His holy way, The GodSmacks fall on rebel hearts— But we trust and obey. Rejoice in trials, rejoice in grace, His hand will never sway; He guards His flock through judgment’s storm And leads us all the way! Verse 4 Rejoice, rejoice! Again I say, Lift up your voice in praise; The Lord is near, our Guide and Friend, Through all our fleeting days. As surely as He overcame, So shall His saints endure; Till faith gives way to endless sight, And glory stands secure. Chorus When nations rage and evil schemes Defy His holy way, The GodSmacks fall on rebel hearts— But we trust and obey. Rejoice in trials, rejoice in grace, His hand will never sway; He guards His flock through judgment’s storm And leads us all the way! Bridge (Victory Celebration) Lift high the cross! His kingdom stands, Though earth and hell oppose; The Lamb has conquered every foe, And crushed His final foes. So shout His praise from shore to shore, Let every heart proclaim: The Lord of hosts is with His own, Forever He shall reign!
