You never take your eyes off me. Psalm 121

Psalm 121:1-8 

I look at the vast size of the mountains—from where will my help come in times of trouble?  

Eternal Creator of heaven and earth and these mountains, You will send the help I need. 

You 

hold 

me 

firmly 

in 

place;

You will not let me fall.

You keep me and you will never take Your eyes off me and never drift off to sleep. 

What a relief! 

You, the One, who watches over Israel never leaves for rest or sleep. 

You, The Eternal, keeps me safe, so close to You that Your shadow is a cooling shade to me. 

Neither bright light of sunnor dim light of moon will harm me. 

You, God, will keep me safe from all of life’s evils, 

From my first breath to the last breath I breathe, from this day and forever.
