  1. 1He that hath made his refuge God,
  2. Shall find a most secure abode;
  3. Shall walk all day beneath his shade,
  4. And there at night, shall rest his head.
  5. 2Then will I say, "My God! thy power
  6. Shall be my fortress and my tower;
  7. I, who am formed of feeble dust,
  8. Make thine almighty arm my trust."
  9. 3Thrice happy man! thy Maker's care
  10. Shall keep thee from the fowler's snare;--
  11. Satan, the fowler, who betrays
  12. Unguarded souls a thousand ways.
