Abiding in the Almighty

Abiding in the Almighty

 

Abiding in the shadow of the Almighty

Safe and Secure, what harm can come to me?

Though ten thousand at my right hand may fall--

It is my Lord that delivers from perils all

 

I shall not be afraid of the terror by night

Nor dismay at the wicked’s woeful might

Upon the lion and adder I tread

And man hath no pow’r o’er the soul to cause me dread?

 

I fear not the arrow that flieth swift by day,

Nor the destruction wasting at noonday

His truth my shield and my buckler shall be

In His wings I trust, and His feathers cover me.

 

In the secret place of the Most High I dwell

God ruleth over heaven and hell,

 And in His hand my destiny’s secure

Clothed in His Son’s righteousness I stand pure.
