Verse 1

God sends forth His wrath because

unjust, negative, and evil things

disturb and destroy the growth

of just things and what’s positive.

Verse 2

God’s anger is not to shield

His own status and identity,

but to safeguard all just things

that are good and positive.

Pre-chorus 1

The root of His wrath is to safeguard order and law

for man’s normal life.

This is the root cause of God’s wrath.

Chorus

Since the creation of man,

God has sustained man’s normal life

with His righteous disposition, which has majesty and ire.

All that are evil, disruptive, that damage man’s normal life

are punished, controlled, and wiped because of His wrath;

they are destroyed, they are destroyed.

Verse 3

If there were not the wrath of God,

then humanity would simply descend

to abnormal ways of life,

just good things would be ruined.

Verse 4

Over the past millennia,

through God’s righteousness,

He aborts the evil spirits that aid Satan

and oppose Him in His work.

Pre-chorus 2

Without God’s wrath,

all creatures’ law and order

would be broken or even annihilated.

Chorus

Since the creation of man,

God has sustained man’s normal life

with His righteous disposition, which has majesty and ire.

All that are evil, disruptive, that damage man’s normal life

are punished, controlled, and wiped because of His wrath;

they are destroyed.

Bridge

Thus, God’s work of the salvation of man

has always advanced as He had planned.

And so it’s because of the existence of God’s wrath,

the most righteous cause among men still stands.

Chorus

Since the creation of man,

God has sustained man’s normal life

with His righteous disposition, which has majesty and ire.

All that are evil, disruptive, that damage man’s normal life

are punished, controlled, and wiped because of His wrath;

they are destroyed, they are destroyed.
