1 God is my strong salvation;
What foe have I to fear?
In peril and temptation
My light, my help, is near.
2 Though hosts encamp around me,
Firm to the fight I stand;
What terror can confound me,
With God at my right hand?
3 Place on the Lord reliance,
My soul, with courage wait;
God's truth be thine affiance,
When faint and desolate.
4 God's might thy heart shall strengthen,
God's love thy joy increase;
Mercy thy days shall lengthen;
The Lord will give thee peace.
