1 I wait for You, because You are my strength,
A mighty fort, a stronghold is my God.
My loving God, my God, will meet with me,
And let me look in triumph on my foes.
Spare them, O Lord, our Shield, lest we forget;
But in Your might disperse and bring them down.
2 Let sinful deeds and lies catch up with them
Because of lies and curses that they speak.
In wrath consume that they may be no more;
Let all earth know that God in Jacob rules.
At night like dogs m enemies return;
They prowl for food and growl unsatisfied.
3 But as for me, I'll sing about Your strength,
Each day with joy, sing of Your steadfast love;
For You have been my fortress, my defense,
My refuge when the times of trouble come.
To You I sing my praises, O my Strength;
For He is God my Fort, my God of love.
