Change Your Tune Notes:

1 A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet. On shigionoth.[a]

4 His splendor was like the sunrise; rays flashed from his hand, where his power was hidden.

6 He stood, and shook the earth; he looked, and made the nations tremble. The ancient mountains crumbled and the age-old hills collapsed— but he marches on forever.

7 I saw the tents of Cushan in distress, the dwellings of Midian in anguish.
