I will lift up my eyes to the hills
From whence cometh my help
My help comes from the Lord
Who made Heaven and earth
He will not allow your foot to be moved
He who keeps you will not slumber
Behold He Who keeps Israel
Should neither slumber nor sleep
The Lord is your keeper
The Lord is your shade at your right hand
The sun shall not strike you by day
Nor the moon by night
The Lord shall preserve you from all evil
He shall preserve your soul
The Lord shall preserve your going out
And your coming in
This time forth and forevermore
