God Will Watch Over You (Psalm 121)

Verse 1

My pilgrim path is through the hills
Where awe is joined with fear
I gaze about the wilderness
Where will my help appear?
Creation’s Maker is supreme
In all of heaven and earth
His covenant of love to me
Establishes my worth

Chorus 1

God will keep watch, he will watch over you
In joys and sorrows, all your journey through
Tender, vigilant, steadfast and true
God will watch over you

Verse 2

When circumstances press on me
With sadness, dread, or pain
When doubts cloud my attempts at faith
And courage seems in vain
My Guardian is close at hand
So watchful and aware
No evil can remove me from
His presence or his care

Chorus 2

God will keep watch, he will watch over you
In joys and sorrows, all your journey through
Tender, vigilant, steadfast and true
God will watch over you

Verse 3

He shields me from the sun above
And heals the dark within
My steps are steadied by the Lord
My life stands firm in Him
When in harm's way he will preserve
My life he will restore
Both going out and coming in
Both now and evermore

Chorus 3

God will keep watch, he will watch over you
In joys and sorrows, all your journey through
Tender, vigilant, steadfast and true
God will watch over you
God will watch over you
