O Lord, my enemies increase
So many to me say
“He can’t expect his God to help”
They taunt me night and day.
I know You are my Shield, O Lord
You lift me up with care
You wipe my tears and hear my cry
As I call out in prayer.
And so I lay me down to sleep
The Lord surrounds my bed
I will not fear the masses now
Their threats I will not dread.
Do save me now, O Lord, I pray
Rise up and strike them down
Salvation belongs to You, O Lord
Your blessings are my crown.
