Unto the Hills

Author: John, duke of Argyll Meter: 10.4.10.4.10.10 Appears in 105 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 121 First Line: Unto the hills around do I lift up Lyrics: 1 Unto the hills around do I lift up my longing eyes: O whence for me shall my salvation come, from whence arise? From God the Lord doth come my certain aid, from God the Lord, who heav'n and earth hath made. 2 He will not suffer that thy foot be moved: safe shalt thou be. No careless slumber shall his eyelids close, who keepeth thee. Behold our God, the Lord, he slumb'reth ne'er, who keepeth Israel in his holy care. 3 Jehovah is himself thy keeper true, thy changeless shade; Jehovah thy defense on thy right hand himself hath made. And thee no sun by day shall ever smite; no moon shall harm thee in the silent night. 4 From ev'ry evil shall he keep thy soul, from every sin: Jehovah shall preserve thy going out, thy coming in. Above thee watching, he whom we adore shall keep thee henceforth, yea, forevermore. Topics: God His Faithfulness; Protection Used With Tune: LUX BEATA

Psalm 121

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 121 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 121 First Line: Up to the hills I lift mine eyes Lyrics: Up to the hills I lift mine eyes, Th' eternal hills beyond the skies; Thence all her help my soul derives; There my Almighty refuge lives. He lives; the everlasting God, That built the world, that spread the flood; The heav'ns with all their hosts he made, And the dark regions of the dead. He guides our feet, he guards our way; His morning smiles bless all the day; He spreads the evening veil, and keeps The silent hours while Isr'el sleeps. Isr'el, a name divinely blest, May rise secure, securely rest; Thy holy Guardian's wakeful eyes Admit no slumber nor surprise. No sun shall smite thy head by day, Nor the pale moon with sickly ray Shall blast thy couch; no baleful star Dart his malignant fire so far. Should earth and hell with malice burn, Still thou shalt go, and still return, Safe in the Lord; his heav'nly care Defends thy life from every snare. On thee foul spirits have no power; And in thy last departing hour, Angels that trace the airy road Shall bear thee homeward to thy God.
