Unto the Hills
}
Unto the hills around do I lift up
My longing eyes;
O whence for me shall my salvation come,
From whence arise?
From God the Lord doth come my certain aid,
From God the Lord, who heav'n and earth hath made
.

He will not suffer that thy foot be moved:
Safe shalt thou be;
No careless slumber shall His eyelids close,
Who keepeth thee;
Behold, He sleepeth not, He slumb'reth ne'er,
Who keepeth Israel in His holy care.

Jehovah is Himself thy keeper true:
Thy changeless shade,
Jehovah evermore on thy right hand
Himself hath made;
And thee no sun by day shall ever smite,
No moon shall harm thee in the silent night.

From ev'ry evil shall He keep thy soul,
From ev'ry sin;
Jehovah shall preserve thy going out,
Thy coming in;
Above thee watching, He whom we adore
Shall keep thee henceforth, yea, for evermore.
