I lift  up my eyes to the mountains from where shall come my help

As I embark on new journey with Lord

Thoughts of fear and insecurities are squashed

As my help comes from the Lord, maker of heaven and earth

Slipping into old habits and old life of sin, no way!

Will he let my foot slip the one watching over me?

As I take my step forward will he watch over me or will he slumber?

No way, the guardian of Israel neither slumbers nor sleeps

When I sit in the company of the people of world,

clinking glasses of wine and champagne

I hear his gentle whisper guarding my thoughts, my tongue and my actions

Protecting me from every evil, steering the course of my life,

I get this gentle assurance he shall be sitting, walking , running with me

never leaving my side

As I grow in faith,

As I grow closer to my Abba

My heart is swelling with love and desire for him

And I know now that nothing can take me away from him

He watches my coming and going both now and forever

My friend, my guardian, my Lord almighty , my all in all.
