LYRICS

All Who Dwell in the Shelter (Psalm 91)

Tune: Dearthairin o Mo Chroi

Words: Kiran Young Wimberly © 2018

 

All who dwell in the shelter, the refuge of God Most High
You will rest in the shadow of God the Almighty One
I will say that the Lord is my fortress in whom I trust
Surely God will protect you from trouble all through…

From the snare of the fowler, from pestilence deadly and dark
Under wings of protection, your God will draw you close
You’ll not fear the night, for God’s faithfulness shields you from harm
Surely God will protect you from trouble all through…

The terrors of night and the arrows that fly by day
A thousand may fall at your right, and ten thousand beside
But they will not come near you; the Lord is your refuge and might
Surely God will protect you from trouble all through your life

The angels will lift you, your foot will not strike a stone
Though you tread on a lion, it will not hunt you down
For God will protect you, beloved, and answer your cry
Surely God will protect you from trouble all through your life
