Call Jehovah thy salvation,

Rest beneath th’ Almighty’s shade;

In his secret habitation

Dwell, and never be dismayed.

Guile nor violence can harm thee,

In eternal silence there;

There no tumult shall alarm thee;

Thou shalt dread no hidden snare.

2 Since with pure and firm affection

Thou on God hast set thy love,

With the wings of his protection

He will shield thee from above:

Thou shalt call on him in trouble;

He will hearken; he will save;

Here for grief reward thee double;

Crown with life beyond the grave.
