A Short Requiem: IV. Levavi oculos
Henry Walford Davies
I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help
My help cometh even from the Lord, who hath made heaven and earth
He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: and he that keepeth thee will not sleep
Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep
The Lord himself is thy keeper: the Lord is thy defence upon thy right hand
So that the sun shall not burn thee by day, neither the moon by night
The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil: yea, it is even he that shall keep thy soul
The Lord shall preserve thy going out, and thy coming in, from this time forth, and even for evermore
