34. GOD OUR SAFETY. Psalm 91.Who in the Most High's secret place doth dwell,Beneath th' Almighty's shadow shall abide.God is my refuge, where I safe may hide,—My fortress strong and inaccessible.From thee the noisome plague he will repel,And safe from fowler's snare, with skill applied;Although a thousand fall down at thy side,No evil shall approach thy house or cell.His kind, protecting wings o'er thee shall spread;His truth shall be to thee a brazen shield,His promise stronger than a tow'r on high;Of nightly terror be not then afraid,Nor of the day's swift arrow: 'tis reveal'd,Thy God, thy trust, shall lift thee to the sky!
34. GOD OUR SAFETY. Psalm 91.
Who in the Most High's secret place doth dwell,Beneath th' Almighty's shadow shall abide.God is my refuge, where I safe may hide,—My fortress strong and inaccessible.From thee the noisome plague he will repel,And safe from fowler's snare, with skill applied;Although a thousand fall down at thy side,No evil shall approach thy house or cell.His kind, protecting wings o'er thee shall spread;His truth shall be to thee a brazen shield,His promise stronger than a tow'r on high;Of nightly terror be not then afraid,Nor of the day's swift arrow: 'tis reveal'd,Thy God, thy trust, shall lift thee to the sky!
Who in the Most High's secret place doth dwell,
Beneath th' Almighty's shadow shall abide.
God is my refuge, where I safe may hide,—
My fortress strong and inaccessible.
From thee the noisome plague he will repel,
And safe from fowler's snare, with skill applied;
Although a thousand fall down at thy side,
No evil shall approach thy house or cell.
His kind, protecting wings o'er thee shall spread;
His truth shall be to thee a brazen shield,
His promise stronger than a tow'r on high;
Of nightly terror be not then afraid,
Nor of the day's swift arrow: 'tis reveal'd,
Thy God, thy trust, shall lift thee to the sky!
