God is my strong Salvation:
What foe have I to fear?
In darkness and temptation,
my Light, my Help is near.
Thou hosts encamp around me,
firm in the fight I stand.
What terror can confound me,
with God at my right hand?
Place on the Lord reliance;
my soul, with courage, wait.
His truth will be my affiance,
when faint and desolate.
His might thy heart shall strengthen,
His love thy joy increase.
Mercy thy days shall lengthen;
the Lord will give thee peace.
---Alternative verses---
Place on the Lord reliance;
my soul, with courage, wait.
His truth will be my Sustenance,
when faint and desolate.
His might my heart shall strengthen,
His love my joy increase.
Mercy my days shall lengthen;
the Lord will give me peace.
