Lyrics
(v.1)
Sanballat, Tobiah and Geshen I can’t imagine what it’s like
To walk up to someone bigger than you and try to start a fight.
What one earth are you thinking! Or are you thinking at all?
For your own good you better back off Or get ready for a nasty fall.
(chorus)
What’s it like to be an enemy of the Lord?
What’s it like to be so foolish to think that you might win?
What’s it like to know you’ll lose once... and then again.
Right now with this wall and when you’re judged in the end?
(v.2)
You’re like the roly poly who rolls into a ball
Protected from his enemies as long as they are also small.
But the Lord is a giant you’ll have no safe retreat.
The shell that you trust in will crush under his feet.
(chorus)
("You don't even know the size of your Foe.")
("Give it a rest. You're not up to the quest.")
("What word describes you people?")
("What comes to mind is the word ' feeble'.")
(v.3)
Do you really think you can stop the building of the wall
When the Lord stands taller than a mountain and you three stand so small.
Even on each other’s shoulders the highest you would reach
Would be the bottom of His sandals You couldn’t even tickle His feet.
What’s it like to be an enemy of the Lord?
