8.7.8.7.8.7
God my rock, he is my fortress.
He my strength, my shield, my song.
Held by arms whose might is endless
I am safe though foes be strong.
Held by him whose love is boundless
I am safe though night be long.
God my rock set heaven quaking
shook the earth and dried the sea.
On this rock my foes are breaking
In its shadow I am free!
When my enemies were raging
God sent down to rescue me.
God my rock, there is no other,
My strong refuge in the night.
Gentle Lord, my faithful brother,
Sets my feet firm on the heights.
None are safe who trust another,
He alone brings life and light.
God my rock who lives forever,
Blessed be his mighty name!
Vengeance-giver, strong deliverer,
Lord who rescued me from shame.
I will praise you now and ever,
Through the ages still the same.
