God the Help of Those Who Seek Him
A Song of Ascents.
1 I will lift up my eyes to the hills —
From whence comes my help?
A Song of Ascents.
1 I will lift up my eyes to the hills —
From whence comes my help?
2 My help comes from the Lord,
Who made heaven and earth.
Who made heaven and earth.
3 He will not allow your foot to [a]be moved;
He who keeps you will not slumber.
He who keeps you will not slumber.
4 Behold, He who keeps Israel
Shall neither slumber nor sleep.
Shall neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The Lord is your [b]keeper;
The Lord is your shade at your right hand.
The Lord is your shade at your right hand.
6 The sun shall not strike you by day,
Nor the moon by night.
Nor the moon by night.
7 The Lord shall [c]preserve you from all evil;
He shall preserve your soul.
He shall preserve your soul.
8 The Lord shall preserve[d] your going out and your coming in
From this time forth, and even forevermore.
From this time forth, and even forevermore.
