While God my strength, my life sustains, secure from fear my soul remains, secure from fear my soul remains. 2 My one request has been and still this prayer I raise; that I may live within God's house for all my days. God's glorious beauty to admire, and in his temple to inquire, and in his temple to inquire. 3 When troubles round me swell, when fears and dangers throng, securely I will dwell in his pavilion strong. Within the shelter of God's tent he hides me till the storm is spent, he hides me till the storm is spent. 4 Uplifted on a rock above my foes around, amid the battle shock my song shall still resound. Then joyful offerings I will bring; the LORD God's praise my heart shall sing, the LORD God's praise my heart shall sing.
