131. I to the Hills Will Lift My Eyes

1 I to the hills will lift my eyes.
O whence shall come my aid?
My help is from the Lord alone,
who heaven and earth has made.

2 He will not let thy foot be moved;
thy Guardian never sleeps;
with watchful and unslumb'ring care,
his own he safely keeps.

3 Thy faithful keeper is the Lord,
thy shelter and thy shade;
'neath sun or moon, by day or night,
thou shalt not be afraid.

4 From evil he will keep thee safe,
for thee he will provide;
thy going out and coming in
forever he will guide.
