Divine Protection. Ps. 3. 3-6; 121. 4; 1 Sam. 7. 12

1 A sovereign Protector I have,
  Unseen, yet for ever at hand;
  Unchangeably faithful to save,
  Almighty to rule and command;
  He smiles, and my comforts abound;
  His grace as the dew shall descend;
  And walls of salvation surround
  The souls he delights to defend.

2 Kind Author and ground of my hope,
  Thee, thee for my God I avow;
  My glad Ebenezer set up,
  And own thou hast helped me till now.
  I muse on the years that are past,
  Wherein my defence thou hast proved;
  Nor wilt thou relinquish at last
  A sinner so signally loved.
