🎵 Song Title: “You Do See (Psalm 10)”

🎯 Theme:

A moving worship lament that speaks honestly to God about injustice, but ultimately affirms His kingship, care for the vulnerable, and coming judgment on the wicked. A song of intercession, hope, and trust.

🎶 Lyrics (Based directly on Psalm 10:1–18)

Verse 1 (Psalm 10:1–2)

Why, O Lord, do You stand so far?

Why hide in trouble, when wounds are hard?

The wicked in pride hunt down the weak —

Arise, O God, hear as we speak.

Verse 2 (Psalm 10:3–6)

They boast of greed, they curse Your name,

They think You’ll never see their shame.

They say, “I’ll never be moved or fall,”

But You are Judge and Lord of all.

Chorus (Psalm 10:12–14)

Arise, O Lord, lift up Your hand,

Don’t forget the weak in this land.

You do see the pain and tears —

You are close, You draw us near.

You do see, You do hear.

Verse 3 (Psalm 10:8–11)

They lie in wait for helpless lives,

Their mouths are full of threats and lies.

But You defend the orphaned soul,

You crush the wicked, You make them fall.

Bridge (Psalm 10:16–17)

The Lord is King forevermore,

The nations perish, but You endure.

You hear the cries, You lift the poor,

You break the arms of evil's roar.

Final Chorus (Psalm 10:18)

You defend the fatherless and oppressed,

So none on earth may cause distress.

You do see, You do hear —

You are near, always near.
