Representative Text

1 I to the hills will lift mine eyes;
from whence doth come mine aid?
My safety cometh from the LORD,
who heaven and earth hath made.

2 Thy foot He'll not let slide, nor will
He slumber that thee keeps.
Behold, He that keeps Israel,
He slumbers not, nor sleeps.

3 The LORD thee keeps, the LORD thy shade
on thy right hand doth stay:
the moon by night thee shall not smite,
nor yet the sun by day.

4 The Lord shall keep thy soul; he shall
preserve thee from all ill.
Henceforth thy going out and in
God keep for ever will.
