Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Psalms for All Seasons #27D (2012) Meter: 7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 God is my strong salvation;
what foe have I to fear?
In peril and temptation
my light, my help, is near.
2 Though hosts encamp around me,
firm to the fight I stand;
what terror can confound me,
with God at my right hand?
3 Place on the Lord reliance,
my soul, with courage wait;
God's truth be thine affiance,
when faint and desolate.
4 God's might thy heart shall strengthen,
God's love thy joy increase;
mercy thy days shall lengthen;
the Lord will give thee peace.
