Thou, Lord, Art A Shield For Me,
Succour Still I Find In Thee;
Now Thou Liftest Up My Head,
Now I Glory In Thine Aid,
Confident In Thy Defence,
Strong In Thine Omnipotence.

To The Lord I Cried; The Cry
Brought My Helper From The Sky;
By My Kind Protector Kept,
Safe I Laid Me Down And Slept,
Slept Within His Arms, And Rose;
Blest Him For The Sweet Repose.

Thine It Is, O Lord, To Save;
Strength In Thee Thy People Have;
Safe From Sin In Thee They Rest,
With The Gospel-Blessing Blest,
Wait To See The Perfect Grace,
Heaven On Earth In Jesu’s Face.
