Help comes only from the LORD,
the maker of heav'n and earth.
1 I look high to the hills.
From where shall come my help?
My help comes only from the LORD,
the maker of heaven and earth. [Refrain]
2 God will not let you fall,
the guardian of your life never sleeps.
No, never sleeps, nor slumbers,
the guardian of Israel true. [Refrain]
3 God is your help and shade,
ever near to protect and guide you.
The sun shall not strike you by day;
the moon shall not harm you by night. [Refrain]
4 God protects your life,
yes, guards your body and soul;
your going out, your coming in,
both now and forevermore. [Refrain]
