Lyrics
1 He that dwelleth in the
secret place of the most
High shall abide under the
shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say of the LORD,
He is my refuge and
my fortress: my God; in
him will I trust.
3 Surely he shall deliver
thee from the snare of the
fowler, and from
the noisome pestilence.
4 He shall cover thee with
his feathers, and under
his wings shalt thou
trust: his truth shall
be thy shield and
buckler.
5 Thou shalt not be afraid
for the terror by night;
nor for the arrow
that flieth by day;
6 Nor for the
pestilence that
walketh in darkness;
nor for the
destruction that
wasteth at noonday.
7 A thousand shall fall at
thy side, and ten thousand
at thy right hand; but
it shall not come nigh
thee.
8 Only with thine eyes
shalt thou behold and see
the reward of the wicked.
9 Because thou hast made
the LORD, which is
my refuge, even the
most High, thy habitation;
10 There shall no evil
befall thee, neither shall
any plague come nigh thy
dwelling.
11 For he shall give his
angels charge over thee,
to keep thee in all thy
ways.
12 They shall bear thee up
in their hands,
lest thou dash thy foot
against a stone.
13 Thou shalt tread upon
the lion and adder: the
young lion and the dragon
shalt thou trample under
feet.
14 Because he hath set his
love upon me, therefore
will I deliver him: I will
set him on high, because
he hath known my name.
15 He shall call upon me,
and I will answer him: I
will be with him in
trouble; I will deliver
him, and honour him.
16 With long life will I
satisfy him, and shew him
my salvation.
Track Comments
The music to Psalm 91 was composed
in 1982. The
devil quoted from Psalm 91
during the temptation of Christ.
The Telmud writers
consider that when the
author's name is not mentioned
we may assign the Psalm to the
last named writer; and, if so,
this is another Psalm of
Moses, the man of God. Many
expressions here used are
similar to those of Moses in
Deuteronomy, and the internal
evidence, from the peculiar
idioms, would point towards
him as the composer. |
