[verse 3] Unto the rock of higher power,
Lord, lead me graciously:
For thou ••••st been my fort and tower.
against the enemy.
[verse 4] Within thy tents I chuse to dwell,
and dwelling to endure:
Beneath thy wings I know right well
I shall be safe and sure▪
[verse 5] The vows that did my soul engage,
Lord, thou wast pleas'd to hear:
Thou gavest me the heritage
of them that do thee fear.
[verse 6] The life of thine anointed one,
thou wilt, O Lord, maintain:
As many a Generation
before thee to remain.
[verse 7] He shall abide before thy face,
for ever to endure:
Prepare thy mercy, truth, and grace,
which may preserve him sure.
[verse 8] So shall I sing and utter still
the praises of thy Name:
That all my vows I may fulfill,
and daily pay the same.
