Save me from my foes,
Shield me, Lord, from harm,
Let me safe repose
On thy might arm,
Thou art God alone;
Those who seek thy heavenly face,
Thou wilt bless, and they shall own
Thy matchless grace.
Pleasant is the land
Where Jehovah’s known,
Where a pious band
Bow before his throne,
Who, with loud acclaim,
Sing his great and wondrous love,
Who ere long shall praise his name
With saints above.
Let my faith and love
With my years increase;
Let me never rove
From the paths of peace;
But through life display
Holy deeds and actions pure,
That, when life has passed away,
May bliss be sure.
