And a strong tower from the [F] enemy
[C] For he shall deliver me from the [G] snare of the [Am] fowler
[F] And from the noisome [C] pestilence
[G] He shall cover me with his [Am] feathers
[F] And under his wings shall I [C] trust
[G] His truth shall be my [Am] shield and [F] buckler
[C] Thou shalt not be afraid of the [G] terror by night

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High
Those who reside in the hidden refuge of the Almighty
Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty
Will find shelter and security under the protective presence of the Almighty
My God, in him will I trust
I will place my faith and confidence in my God
For he shall deliver me from the snare of the fowler
He will rescue me from the traps set by the deceiver
And from the noisome pestilence
And protect me from the destructive plagues that roam
He shall cover me with his feathers
He will shield me with His loving care
And under his wings shall I trust
And I will place my trust in His sheltering embrace
His truth shall be my shield and buckler
His unwavering truth will be my defense and protection
I will not be afraid for the terror by night
I will not live in fear of the darkness and its terrors
Nor for the arrow that flieth by day
Nor for the dangers that come with the light of day
For thou hast been a shelter for me
Because you have been my refuge
And a strong tower from the enemy
And a formidable fortress against my adversaries
For he shall deliver me from the snare of the fowler
For He will rescue me from the traps set by the deceiver
And from the noisome pestilence
And protect me from the destructive plagues that roam
He shall cover me with his feathers
He will shield me with His loving care
And under his wings shall I trust
And I will place my trust in His sheltering embrace
His truth shall be my shield and buckler
His unwavering truth will be my defense and protection
Thou shalt not be afraid of the terror by night
You shall not live in fear of the darkness and its terrors
Nor of the arrow that flieth by day
Nor of the dangers that come with the light of day
For he shall give his angels charge over thee
For He will command His angels to guard and protect you
To keep thee in all thy ways
To safeguard you in every step you take
For he shall deliver me from the snare of the fowler
For He will rescue me from the traps set by the deceiver
And from the noisome pestilence
And protect me from the destructive plagues that roam
He shall cover me with his feathers
He will shield me with His loving care
And under his wings shall I trust
And I will place my trust in His sheltering embrace
His truth shall be my shield and buckler
His unwavering truth will be my defense and protection
For he shall give his angels charge over thee
For He will command His angels to guard and protect you
To keep thee in all thy ways
To safeguard you in every step you take
And they shall bear thee up in their hands
And they will lift you up in their hands
Lest thou dash thy foot against a stone
So that you don't stumble upon a stone and fall
