Psalm 121
I lift up my eyes to the hills— from where will my help come? My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. He will not let your foot be moved; he who keeps you will not slumber. He who keeps Israel will 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 will keep you from all evil; he will keep your life. The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in from this time on and forevermore.

We look all around for the help we need.
There’s so much help that seems to mislead.
Where are the hills for our eyes to explore?
Perhaps not a hill but a quiet shore.
The psalmist has such a deep belief
which was a comfort in time of grief.
Experience proved the words to be true
during the ages for me and for you.
May you stay close to the God he found then
so you can stand an add your amen.
May God keep your going out and in
helping you live a life free of sin.
