1 God is our refuge and our strength,
in Him our hope is found;
an ever-present help in need,
when trouble is around.

2 Therefore, we will not fear, though earth
should tremble and give way;
though mountains fall into the sea,
He's still our help and stay;

3 Though waters roar and foam with power,
and tempests make us shake;
though surging waters even cause
the mountain peaks to quake.

4 There is a river that makes glad
the city of our God;
the holy place where the Most High
does dwell and reign abroad.

5 God is within her; she stands firm
and will not fall away;
and God will surely give her help
when comes the break of day.

6 All nations are in uproar as
their kingdoms rise and fall;
He lifts His voice, and all earth melts
before His mighty call.

7 The LORD Almighty is with us,

He is our refuge sure.
The God of Jacob is our trust,

our fortress evermore.

8 Come, see the works the LORD has done,

the desolations here.
He makes wars cease to ends of earth,

and breaks the bow and spear.

9 “Be still, and know that I am God,

exalted I will be!
Among all nations, all the earth,

exalted I will be!”

10 The LORD Almighty is with us,

He is our refuge sure.
The God of Jacob is our trust,

our fortress evermore
