Beneath the proud hills' shadows I seek the help I need. I lift my eyes beyond them and there this promise read: "Help comes from God Almighty, who made both heav'n and earth, the Lord who banished chaos and brought all things to birth. "Your foot will never stumble, nor will your Guardian sleep; the One who cares for Israel will ever watchful keep. The Lord will be your shade tree to shield you day and night; the sun's heat cannot hurt you nor can the moon's pale light. "From every harm and evil your life will be secure; God's strength and love will guard you and keep your footing sure. Your comings and your goings are all within God's hand; the Lord will bless and keep you till no more proud hills stand."
