When God Stands Up | (Psalm 76 Blues)

** Psalm 76 is a powerful song of victory, written by Asaph, one of the chief musicians of King David’s time. This psalm celebrates God’s dominion over the earth, His triumph over the proud, and His judgment that brings peace and fear to the nations. It was likely written in response to a great military victory, where God Himself intervened, rendering the enemy powerless. The psalm serves as a reminder that no force can stand against the Almighty, and that even human wrath ultimately brings Him praise.

This blues interpretation, "When God Stands Up," captures the weight and reverence of Psalm 76 in a deep, soulful way. The lyrics stay true to the original text while bringing out the raw emotion of God's power, judgment, and protection. Let the music take you into the moment when the earth stood still at the voice of the Lord.

** Psalm 76 (World English Bible - WEB)

For the Chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A Psalm by Asaph. A song.

1 In Judah, God is known.
His name is great in Israel.
2 His tabernacle is also in Salem,
His dwelling place in Zion.
3 There He broke the flaming arrows of the bow,
the shield, and the sword, and the weapons of war. Selah.

4 Glorious are You, and excellent,
more than mountains full of game.
5 Valiant men lie plundered,
they have slept their last sleep.
None of the men of war can lift their hands.
6 At Your rebuke, God of Jacob,
both chariot and horse are cast into a deep sleep.

7 You, even You, are to be feared.
Who can stand in Your sight when You are angry?
8 You pronounced judgment from heaven.
The earth feared, and was silent,
9 when God arose to judgment,
to save all the afflicted ones of the earth. Selah.

10 Surely the wrath of man praises You.
The survivors of Your wrath are restrained.
11 Make vows to Yahweh your God, and fulfill them!
Let all of His neighbors bring presents to Him who is to be feared.
12 He will cut off the spirit of princes.
He is feared by the kings of the earth.
"When God Stands Up" (Psalm 76 Blues)

(Slow blues groove, deep and soulful)

[Verse 1]
In Judah, God is known,
His name is great in the land.
His tabernacle's in Salem,
Zion is where He stands.
There He broke the arrows,
the shield, the sword, the fight—
Now the mighty men lie sleeping,
never rising to the light.

[Verse 2]
Oh, You are glorious, Lord,
more than mountains full of game.
You strike down the warrior’s pride,
not one can rise again.
At Your rebuke, O God of Jacob,
both chariot and horse lay still,
When You stand in judgment, Lord,
the whole world knows Your will.

[Chorus]
You, even You, are to be feared!
Who can stand when Your wrath is near?
You speak from heaven—the earth stands quiet,
When God stands up, there’s none beside Him!

[Verse 3]
Surely the wrath of man
will praise You in the end.
What’s left of anger and pride,
Lord, You bring to an end.
So let the people bring their gifts,
bow before His throne,
He cuts off the spirit of princes,
leaves the kings to stand alone.

[Chorus]
You, even You, are to be feared!
Who can stand when Your wrath is near?
You speak from heaven—the earth stands quiet,
When God stands up, there’s none beside Him!

[Outro] (Soft but intense, fading into silence)
When God stands up,
the whole world knows…
There ain't no power,
but the power He shows.
