2 So we will not fear when earthquakes comeand the mountains crumble into the sea.
3 Let the oceans roar and foam.Let the mountains tremble as the waters surge!Interlude
4 A river brings joy to the city of our God,the sacred home of the Most High.
5 God dwells in that city; it cannot be destroyed.From the very break of day, God will protect it.
6 The nations are in chaos,and their kingdoms crumble!God’s voice thunders,and the earth melts!
7 The lord of Heaven’s Armies is here among us;the God of Israel is our fortress.Interlude
8 Come, see the glorious works of the lord:See how he brings destruction upon the world.
