125 | Psalm 125 | SM | |
WHO in the Lord confide, And feel His sprinkled blood, In storms and hurricanes abide Firm as the mount of God. |
|||
2 | Steadfast and fixed and sure, His Zion cannot move; His faithful people stand secure, In Jesus’ guardian love. |
||
3 | As round Jerusalem The hills defensive rise, So God protects and covers them From all their enemies. |
||
4 | On every side He stands, And for His Zion cares; And safe in His almighty hands Their souls for ever bears. |
||
5 | But let them still abide In Thee, all gracious Lord, Let every one be sanctified, And perfectly restored. |
||
6 | All those of heart sincere Continue to defend; And do them good, and save them here, And love them to the end. |
