1-2. I’m ready, God, so ready,ready from head to toe.Ready to sing,ready to raise a God-song:“Wake, soul! Wake, lute!Wake up, you sleepyhead sun!”
10-11. Who will take me to the thick of the fight?Who’ll show me the road to Edom?You aren’t giving up on us, are you, God?refusing to go out with our troops?
12-13. Give us help for the hard task;human help is worthless.In God we’ll do our very best;he’ll flatten the opposition for good.
