[Verse]
Je-hovah is our refuge, Our God in whom we trust
His shadow is our shelter; A-bide in it we must.
For he himself will rescue you
From pes-ti-lence and trap-pers too.
Je-hovah is a stronghold, A ha-ven for all the just.
[Verse]
Tho' thousands will be falling, Yes, at your very side,
Ten thousand at your right hand; No harm will you be-tide.
You will not need to quake with fear,
As tho' great harm to you were near.
Your eyes will merely see it, As 'neath God's wings you'll a-bide.
[Verse]
No plague will e'er be-fall you, No dire ca-lami-ty.
But God will by his angels Pro-vide securi-ty.
The maned young lion you'll not dread;
Up-on the cobra you will tread.
No stone will make you stumble While you serve God faithful-ly.
[Verse]
Praise Jah for such as-surance; His righteous-ness pro-claim.
While making known his virtues, Our-selves we'll keep from blame.
Whole-souled devotion let us show;
Then we'll sal-vation by God know.
Je-hovah is our refuge, A for-tress is his great name.
