LyicsCALL Jehovah thy salvation,
Rest beneath th' Almighty's shade;
In His secret habitation
Dwell, and never be dismay'd.
Guile nor violence can harm thee,
In eternal silence there;
There no tumult shall alarm thee;
Thou shalt dread no hidden snare.
Since with pure and firm affection
Thou on God has set thy love,
With the wings of His protection
He will shield thee from above.
Thou shalt call on Him in trouble;
He will hearken; He will save;
Here for grief reward thee double;
Crown with life beyond the grave.
