Against the God that rules the sky

1

Against the God that rules the skyI fought, with weapons lifted high;I madly ran the sinful race,Regardless of a hiding-place.

2

But a celestial voice I heard,A bleeding Saviour then appeared;Led by the Spirit of his grace,I found in him a hiding-place.

3

On him the weight of vengeance fellThat else had sunk a world to hell;Then, O my soul, forever praiseThy Saviour, God, thy hiding-place!
