In Zi­on’s rock abid­ing,
My soul her tri­umph sings;
In His pa­vil­ion hid­ing,
I praise the King of kings.

Refrain

My high tow­er is He!
To Him will I flee;
In Him con­fide, in Him abide;
My high tow­er is He!

Wild waves are round me swell­ing,
Dark clouds above I see;
Yet, in my fort­ress dwell­ing,
More safe I can­not be.

Refrain

My tow­er of strength can ne­ver
In time of trou­ble fail;
No power of hell, for­ev­er,
Against it shall pre­vail.
