Delight

1. Upward I lift mine eyes,
    From God is all my aid;
To God that built the skies,
    And earth and nature made:
        God is the tower
        To which I fly;
        His grace is nigh
        In every hour.

2. My feet shall never slide,
    And fall in fatal snares;
Since God, my guard and guide,
    Defends me from my fears.
        Those wakeful eyes
        That never sleep,
        Shall Israel keep
        When dangers rise.
