The almighty power

of protection when travelling

A song for those who go up to Jerusalem to worship the Lord.

¹ I look up to the mountains.
Where does my help come from?
² My help comes from the Lord.
He is the Maker of heaven and earth.

³ He won’t let your foot slip.
He who watches over you won’t get tired.
⁴ In fact, he who watches over Israel
won’t get tired or go to sleep.

⁵ The Lord watches over you.
The Lord is like a shade tree at your right hand.
⁶ The sun won’t harm you during the day.
The moon won’t harm you during the night.

⁷ The Lord will keep you from every kind of harm.
He will watch over your life.
⁸ The Lord will watch over your life no matter where you go,
both now and forever.
