He that dwells in the secret place of the Most High
Abides under the shadow of the Almighty drawing nigh

My fortress and my God in Him I trust as years go by

Surely He delivers me from the fowler’s snare
And from the noisome pestilence that poisons the air
He covers me with feathers under His wings I repair
His truth my shield and buckler in every despair
