PSALME 121. (Book 121)

A Prayer for Gods protection over us.

I Will lift up mine eyes unto the hills: from whence cometh my helpe.

2 My helpe cometh even from the Lord: which hath made heauen and earth.

3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: and he that keepeth thee, will not sleep.

4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel: shall nei∣ther slumber nor sleep.

5 The Lord himselfe is thy keeper: the Lord is thy defence upon thy right hand.

6 So that the sun shall not burne thee by day: neither the moon by night.

7 The Lord shall preserve thee from all euill: yea, it is even he that shall keep thy soule.

8 The Lord shall preserve thy going out, and thy coming in: from this time forth for evermore.

The Prayer.

O Lord God our Keeper, who dwellest upon the eternall hills from whence commeth all our helpe, let thy mercies and thy providence watch over us by day and night, that neither the vanities of the one, nor the terrours of the other may disturbe our peace or safety. Let not our feet be moved, but be fixed upon the Rocke Christ Iesus, and so order our goings, making us to walke in the way of thy Commandments, that thou mayest go in and out before us, till at last we come into thy presence to dwell with thee for ever∣more, through Iesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
