The Lutheran Hymnal ‎#665

665. Levavi Oculos

1 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills: from whence cometh my help.

2 My help cometh from the Lord: who hath made heaven and earth.

3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: He that keepeth thee will not slumber.

4 Behold, He that keepeth Israel: shall neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The Lord is thy Keeper: the Lord is thy Shade upon thy right hand.

6 The sun shall not smite thee by day: nor the moon by night.

7 The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil: He shall preserve thy soul.

8 The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in: from this time forth and even forevermore.

9 Glory be to the Father, and to the Son: and to the Holy Ghost;

10 As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: world without end. Amen.
