God Is Our Refuge In Distress

God is our refuge in distress,

Our shield of hope through every care,

Our Shepherd watching us to bless,

And therefore will we not despair;

Although the mountains shake,

And hills their place forsake,

And billows o'er them break

Yet still will we not fear,

For Thou, O God, art ever near.

God is our hope and strength in woe;

Through earth He maketh wars to cease;

His power breaketh spear and bow;

His mercy sendeth endless peace.

Then though the earth remove,

And storms rage high above,

And seas tempestuous prove,

Yet still will we not fear,

The Lord of Hosts is ever near.
