God is our refuge and our strength,
When trouble’s hour is near,
A very present help is He;
Therefore we will nor fear.
Although the pillars of the earth
Shall clean removed be,
The very mountains carried forth,
And cast into the sea;
Although the waters rage and swell,
So that the earth shall shake;
Yea, and the solid mountain roots
Shall with the tempest quake;
There is a river that makes glad
The city of our God;
The tabernacle’s holy place
Of the Most High’s abode.
The Lord is in the midst of her,
Removed she shall not be;
Because the Lord our God himself
Shall help her speedily.
The Lord our strength and refuge is,
When trouble’s hour is near;
A very present help is He;
Therefore we will not fear.
