Psalm 2 ----- "Book of Praise" Anglo Genevan Psalter -------for Guitar

Dm.....AmDmAmDm.....G.DmAm 
Why do the rest-less heathen madly rage? 

Dm..Am.Dm............G.Dm.AmDm..AmDm 
What haughty schemes are they in vain contriving? 

Dm........Am.Dm.C.Dm....G...DmAm 
The kings and.. rul---ers of the earth engage 

Dm....G.Dm.AmG..Dm.GDm..AmDm 
In rash attempts to plot their empty striv--ing. 

Dm...............Am.............G..Dm.GAmDm 
They stand prepared, they all conspire to-ge--ther 

Dm.....G..Dm....G.Am.DmAmGDm 
Against the LORD and His an---oin-ted King. 

Dm.............Am.................G..Dm..G....Dm 
"Let us." they say, "tear loose and break their fetters. 

Dm.......G....Dm...G.........Dm.G..AmDm 
Cast off their chains, their shackles from us fling."

Dm...........AmDm.Am..Dm........GDmAmThough proudly now they raise their battle cry, 

Dm.AmDm...G...Dm.AmDm.AmDm 
How vain is all their frenzied opposi--tion! 

Dm..........Am.Dm.C.Dm.........G.......DmAm 
The LORD, who sits enthroned in heaven on high, 

Dm..............G.Dm...AmG..Dm..G.DmAmDm 
Laughs them to scorn: He has them in de---rision. 

Dm.............Am................G..Dm.GAmDm 
Then He will speak in wrath and in---digna--tion 

Dm.....G..Dm....G.Am.DmAmGDm 
And all their host will He with terr--or fill: 

Dm.............Am...............G..Dm.GDm 
"I've set My King," so runs His proclamation, 

Dm....G.......Dm..G.DmGAmDm 
"Upon mount Zion, on My ho--ly hill."

DmAmDm....G.Dm...AmDm.....AmDm 
For un---to Me He made this declar--a--tion: 

Dm........Am.Dm.C.Dm....GDmAm 
"Thou art My Son, I have begotten Thee 

Dm....G.Dm.AmG..DmG..Dm.AmDm 
This very day. To Thee I'll give the nations. 

Dm...............Am............GDmG.Am..Dm 
Ask what Thou wilt: Thy heritage I'll make them; 

Dm............G.....Dm.G.Am....Dm.Am..G..Dm 
Their lands shalt Thou possess, both near and far. 

Dm.........Am.....G..Dm..G....Dm..... 
Lo, with a rod of iron shalt Thou break them, 

Dm..........G.DmG.......Dm.G..AmDm 
Dash them in pieces like a ----potter's jar."

Dm.........AmDmAmDm...G......DmAm 
Take heed, O rul---ers of the earth, and hear; 

DmAm.Dm.........G.DmAmDm..Am..Dm 
Be wise, O kings, and let His edict warn you. 

Dm......Am.Dm...C...Dm........G.......DmAm 
Rejoice with trembling, serve the LORD with fear. 

Dm........G..Dm.Am..G.DmGDm.AmDm 
Now kiss the Son, lest He in --fur-y scorn you, 

Dm............Am.................G.....Dm.GAmDm 
Lest in His wrath the LORD cause you to perish, 

Dm.......GDm..GAmDmAmG..Dm 
For quickly kindled is- His anger's blaze. 

Dm...........Am............G..Dm....G....Dm 
But all who trust in Him the LORD will cherish; 

Dm.....GDm.......G......Dm...G.Am .Dm 
He will defend and bless them all their days.
