Psalm 121 Version 2 | |||
UPWARD I lift mine eyes, From God is all my aid; The God Who built the skies And earth and nature made: He is my tower, To which I fly, Whose grace is nigh In every hour. |
|||
2 | My feet shall never slide Or fall to Satan’s snares, While God my guard and guide Defends me from my fears: Those watchful eyes That never sleep His children keep When dangers rise. |
||
3 | No trial of night or day Temptation dark or fair Shall steal my soul away If God be with me there; Lord of all power I lean on Thee To strengthen me Through every hour. |
||
4 | For Thou hast given Thy Word, To guide my soul right through; And I can trust my Lord To save and keep me too; Whate’er betide, Thy sovereign will Shall draw me still To Jesus’ side. |

Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 |
