I trust in the Lord alone for safety,
He is my Fortress and Tower of Strength.
Why do you say to me, “fly away like a bird”,
When my enemies arrows are drawn at arm’s length.
The Lord is seated in His Holy Temple,
On His throne in Heaven above.
He watches people everywhere,
And showers the honest with love.
He despises the cruel and the lawless,
Scorching winds will be their embrace.
The Lord does what’s right and loves good,
And the good will see His face.
