The Lord Our Protector

1 A song of ascents.
I lift my eyes toward the mountains.
Where will my help come from?(A)
2
My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.(B)
3
He will not allow your foot to slip;
your Protector will not slumber.(C)
4
Indeed, the Protector of Israel
does not slumber or sleep.(D)
5
The Lord protects you;
the Lord is a shelter right by your side.(a)(E)
6
The sun will not strike you by day
or the moon by night.(F)
7
The Lord will protect you from all harm;
He will protect your life.(G)
8
The Lord will protect your coming and going
both now and forever.(H)
