I Love You, O Lord, my strength, my shield
My fortress in whom my life's concealed
My God, my rock, in Your refuge I take
Save me from violence for Your kingdom's sake
I called upon my Lord with praise
And from the sword of Saul He saved
Death's waves encompassed and floods assailed
To my cry His ears availed
Though cords of Sheol may surround
Confronting snares of death abound
In my distress he hears my voice
From His temple, I rejoice
