A song I wrote based on Psalm 121 back in 2022 but recorded this year, for such a time as this. God’s promises to Israel do not fail as they do not for those who are grafted in by faith in Jesus. God’s Word to Abraham in Genesis 12:3 declares that ” I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”
There is such comfort in the words of Psalm 121 – indeed He is our help, our keeper, our shade and the one who preserves our soul and delivers us from all evil! I hope this song is a blessing to you. There is such power in declaring the truth of God’s Word. I’d love to hear your thoughts and if you haven’t subscribed already please do. May the Lord God of Israel bless and keep you!
This song will be on my fourth album which will hopefully be released in the coming months and available on digital platforms.

LYRICS
Verse
He who keeps Israel shall not sleep or slumber
He is Your keeper, your foot shall not stumble
The sun shall not strike you, nor moon in the night
His shade at your right hand, His law your delight
Chorus
I lift my eyes to the hills
O maker of heaven and earth
I fix my gaze upon You
My helper I hope in Your Word
Bridge
The Lord shall preserve you
Your soul He shall keep
Your coming and going
All evil shall flee (x2)
