To find a dwelling place secure
I need not shrink before the terrors of the night
Nor stand alone before the light of day
No harm shall come to me, nor arrow strike me down
No evil settle in my soul
Although a thousand men have fallen by my side
I'll not be shaken with the Lord at hand
His faithful love is all the armour that I need
To wage my battle with my foe
