To Zion's hill I lift my eyes,
from thence expecting aid;
From Zion's hill, and Zion's God,
who heav'n and earth has made.
Then thou, my soul, in safety rest,
thy Guardian will not sleep;
His watchful care, that Israel guards,
will Israel's monarch keep.
Sheltered beneath th' Almighty's wings
thou shalt securely rest,
Where neither sun nor moon shall thee
by day or night molest.
From common accidents of life
his care shall guard thee still;
From the blind strokes of chance, and foes
that lie in wait to kill.
At home, abroad, in peace, in war,
thy God shall thee defend;
Conduct thee through life's pilgrimage
safe to thy journey's end.
