Lord, so many are rising up against me Many are they who say of my soul There is no help for me in God When they throw stones at me I need not fear nor flee For you, o lord, are a shield for me My glory, and the lifter of my head For you, o lord, are a shield for me My glory, and the lifter of my head I cried to the lord with my voice And he heard me, he heard me, he heard me And I cried to the lord with my voice And he heard me, he heard me, he answered me And I lay down and slept And I awoke for your presence sustained me So when ten thousand fight me I need not fear nor flee Arise, o lord, and save me, o my God For you have struck my enemies You have broken their teeth For salvation comes from you alone Your blessing is upon your people forever
