| You who dwell in the shadow of His wings, |
You who live in the shelter of the Most High, |
| who abide in His shadow for life, |
who abide in the shadow of the Almighty, |
| say to the Lord: 'My refuge, |
2will say to the Lord, ‘My refuge and my fortress; |
| my God in whom I trust!' |
my God, in whom I trust.’ |
| |
|
| (Chorus) |
|
| And He will raise you up on eagles' wings, |
4.2 and under his wings you will find refuge; |
| bear you on the breath of dawn, |
|
| make you to shine like the sun, |
|
| and hold you in the palm of His hand. |
|
| |
|
| The snare of the fowler will never capture you, |
3For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler |
| and famine will bring you no fear: |
and from the deadly pestilence; |
| under His wings your refuge, |
4he will cover you with his pinions, |
| His faithfulness your shield. |
and under his wings you will find refuge; |
| |
his faithfulness is a shield and buckler. |
| |
|
| (Chorus)And He will raise you up on eagles' wings, |
4.2 and under his wings you will find refuge; |
| bear you on the breath of dawn, |
|
| make you to shine like the sun, |
|
| and hold you in the palm of His hand. |
|
| |
|
| You need not fear the terror of the night, |
5You will not fear the terror of the night, |
| nor the arrow that flies by day; |
or the arrow that flies by day, |
| though thousands fall about you, |
6or the pestilence that stalks in darkness, |
| near you it shall not come. |
or the destruction that wastes at noonday. |
| |
|
| (Chorus)And He will raise you up on eagles' wings, |
4.2 and under his wings you will find refuge; |
| bear you on the breath of dawn, |
|
| make you to shine like the sun, |
|
| and hold you in the palm of His hand. |
|
| |
|
| For to His angels He's given a command |
11For he will command his angels concerning you |
| to guard you in all of your ways' |
to guard you in all your ways. |
| upon their hands they will bear you up, |
12On their hands they will bear you up, |
| lest you dash your foot against a stone. |
so that you will not dash your foot against a stone. |
| |
|
| (Chorus)And He will raise you up on eagles' wings, |
4.2 and under his wings you will find refuge; |
| bear you on the breath of dawn, |
|
| make you to shine like the sun, |
|
| and hold you in the palm of His hand. |
