Psalm 52 (God's Gonna Cut You Down) [feat. Shane Heilman] Lyrics and Music by Shane Heilman (Verse 1a) Why do you boast about your evil, O mighty warrior? The steadfast, loyal love of God endures all day long (Verse 1b) Your tongue plots evil like a razor, you worker of deceit You love evil more than good, and deceiving more than speaking the truth (Prechorus 1) You love to destroy others with your words O deceitful tongue (Chorus 1) God’s gonna cut you down, forever He’ll rip you out of your home God’s gonna cut you down, tear your roots out From the land of the living The is the Word of God, if you don’t turn around, it says, “God’s gonna cut you… down” (Verse 2a) When this goes down the righteous will see and they will fear And they will laugh at him and say, take a good look at the man (Verse 2b) Who would not make his refuge God, but trusted in his pocketbook Instead of making God his trust, he trusted in his own demise (Prechorus 2) When you place your faith in the very thing That destroys you in the end (Chorus 2) God’s gonna cut you down, forever He’ll rip you out of your home God’s gonna cut you down, tear your roots out From the land of the living The is the Word of God, if you don’t turn around, it says, God’s gonna cut you… down (Ending) But as for me, I am a like green olive tree Flourishing, flourishing Flourishing in the house of God I will always trust in God’s unfailing love I will give You thanks forever Because of what You’ve done I will give you praise I will give You thanks forever Forever And I will hope on Your name for it is good And I will hope on Your name for it is good And I will hope on Your name for it is good In the presence of the saints In the presence of the saints
