In 26 verses, the prince of Tyre boasts that his riches make him a god, and the king of Tyre falls from his place among the stones of fire in Eden, the garden of God.
Full sung version coming soon.
Lyrics
Tell the prince of Tyre Because your heart is lifted up You have said I am a god
I sit in the seat of God in the middle of the seas Yet you are man and no god Though you set your heart as the heart of a god Behold you are wiser than Daniel There is no secret that is hidden from you
By your wisdom and by your understanding You have gotten yourself riches Gotten gold and silver into your treasuries By your great wisdom and by your trading
You have increased your riches Your heart is lifted up because of your riches Therefore behold I will bring strangers on you The terrible of the nations
They will draw their swords against the beauty of your wisdom Defile your brightness Bring you down to the pit You will die the death of those who are slain In the heart of the seas
Will you yet say before him who kills you I am God But you are man and not God In the hand of him who wounds you You will die the death of the uncircumcised
You were the seal of full measure Full of wisdom and perfect in beauty You were in Eden the garden of God Every precious stone adorned you Ruby topaz emerald chrysolite onyx jasper
You were the anointed cherub who covers On the holy mountain of God You have walked up and down in the middle Of the stones of fire You were perfect in your ways until unrighteousness
By the abundance of your commerce Your insides were filled with violence I have cast you as profane out of God’s mountain I have destroyed you covering cherub
