Safety in God. Ps. 46. 1; 61. 1-6; Prov. 18. 10

1 When, overwhelmed with grief,
  My heart within me dies,
  Helpless and far from all relief,
  To heaven I lift my eyes.

2 O lead me to the Rock
  That’s high above my head.
  And make the covert of thy wings
  My shelter and my shade!

3 Within thy presence, Lord,
  For ever I’d abide;
  Thou art the Tower of my defence,
  The Refuge where I hide.

4 Thou givest me the lot
  Of those that fear thy name;
  If endless life be their reward,
  I shall possess the same.
