PCXXI. A Song of Degrees

1 I to the hills lift up mine eyes.
From whence must come mine aid.
2 Mine help doth from Jehovah come,
Who heav'n and earth hath made.
3 He will not let thy foot be mov'd
Nor slumber who thee keeps.
4 Lo he keepeth Israel,
He slumbreth not nor sleeps.

5 The Lord thy keeper is, the Lord
Thy shade on thy right hand.
6 Lest sun by day, or moon by night,
Should thee by stroke offend.
7 The Lord will keep thee from all ill,
Thy soul he keeps alway:
8 Thy going out and coming in
The Lord keeps now and aye.
