Because thy trust is God alone,
Thy re­fuge is the High­est One;
No ev­il shall up­on thee come,
Nor plague ap­proach thy guard­ed home.

Angelic guards at His com­mands
Will bear thee safe­ly in their hands,
Will keep thee, lest, if left alone,
Thou dash thy foot against a stone.

Though fierce and trea­cher­ous foes as­sail,
Their pow­er and wrath shall not pre­vail;
Their cru­el strength, their ven­omed spite,
Thou shalt o’er­come with con­quer­ing might.

Because on Me he set his love,
I will his con­stant Sav­ior prove,
And since to him My name is known,
I will ex­alt him as Mine own.

As oft as he shall call me on Me,
Most gra­cious shall My an­swer be;
I will be with him in dis­tress,
And in his trou­ble I will bless.

Complete de­li­ver­ance I will give,
And hon­or him while he shall live;
Abundant life I will be­stow,
To him My full sal­va­tion show.
