Refrain:
Harbor of my heart, I take refuge in you,
preserve me, O God! My joy is in you alone.

1 Preserve me, O God, my Savior;
I take refuge within your embrace.
I say to the Lord, "You are my God.
My joy alone is found in you." [Refrain]

2 He has put into my heart a wondrous love
for the faithful who dwell in your land.
It is you, O Lord, who are my cup,
you alone, my portion and my prize. [Refrain]

3 My destiny, O Lord, is my delight;
how I welcome your will for me!
I will bless the Lord who gives me counsel,
who at night is the compass of my heart. [Refrain]

4 The pathway of my life will be shown to me,
the fullness of joy in your presence.
At your side, my soul will sing forever,
to the One who brought life unto my spirit. [Refrain]
