For you are not 

a God who delights 

in wickedness; 

no evil can dwell with You. 

The boastful cannot stand in your presence; You hate all workers of iniquity. 

You destroy those who tell lies; 

The Lord abhors the man of bloodshed and deceit.

Psalms 5:4-6 BSB

I'm not sure what it would be like singing this song, but it's hard to miss David's take on God's holiness and justice. 

And there are days when I just want to see God's justice worked out, to see His holiness hit hard.

And then I know that I have the seeds of all of the things David highlights in my heart, and from time to time they've been in my thoughts and actions too, and I find that I am in need of Grace, that there is no way that I can stand before a holy God in my own righteousness.

So while I love God's holiness, when I consider it, I guess that is an aspect of "fearing God". 

And I'm grateful for Grace.
