God, Keep Me Safe

God, keep me safe; in You I refuge take.

You are my Lord; I have no good elsewhere.

The hearts of all idolaters will ache;

In all their sacrifices I'll not share.

Lord, my inheritance You have assigned;

You guard what's mine and make me feel secure.

Your boundary lines are pleasant to my mind;

Your future blessings will bring joy for sure.

Lord, I will praise You for Your counsel wise;

Even at night my heart tells me Your way.

I'll always set You first before my eyes;

You're right beside me; I won't be afraid.

My heart is glad; my tongue rejoices e'er;

I know You will not leave me when I die.

The path of life to me You will declare;

You'll fill me with eternal joy on high.
