A Song of Degrees, [a.k.a. Steps.] |
Psalm 121:1-8 Book# 5 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks] |
I will lift up [my] eyes to the hills, from [which] comes my help. [Jeremiah 3:23 Truly Salvation is hoped for from the hills & from a multitude of mountains. Truly the Salvation of Israel is in the Lord our God.] |
My help comes from the Lord, [Who] made heaven & earth. [Genesis 1:1-3 In the beginning, God created the heaven & the earth. And the earth was without form & void & darkness was upon the [surface] of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the [surface] of the waters. And God said, Let there be light & there was light.] |
He won't [allow] your foot to be moved. [So,] He, [Who] keeps you, won't [sleep.] [Watch,] He, [Who] keeps Israel shall neither slumber, nor sleep. The Lord is your Keeper. The Lord is your shade upon your right hand.] |
[Isaiah 25:3-4 Therefore, the strong people shall glorify You & the city of the [ruthless] nations shall fear [respect] You. For You have been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat, when the blast of the [ruthless] ones is [like] a storm against the wall.] |
The sun shall not [strike] you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord shall [safeguard] you from all evil. He shall preserve your soul. [Revelation 7:16-17 They shall no [longer] hunger, neither thirst anymore. Neither shall the sun, nor any heat [burn] them. For the Lamb, [Who] is in the midst of the throne, shall feed them & shall lead them into Living Fountains of waters. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.] |
The Lord shall preserve your going out & your coming in from this time [forward] & even forevermore. |
