Do not fear for I will be with you,
Even in the deep waters,
I will hold your hand and lift you high,
When the quicksand seeks to drown you.
Even in the storm, I will guide you,
I will be with you in the day of trouble,
I will deliver you & never let you alone.
Even when the bat that flies by night,
Perches on the shoulders of your house,
I will let no evil befall you,
For you and your home will I keep,
& for your children’s children will I be a guard.
When you call on me I will answer,
When you cry to me,
I will comfort you,
I will protect you from the adder, & the fowler’s snare.
In darkness, I will be your light,
& in chaos, I will be your order.
I will never let the plague come near you,
& under my wings, I will keep you.
I will be your shield & buckler in times of strife,
& my dwelling shall be your safe abode,
Tribulations may arise on your left,
& right, but they shall not come near you,
for I will keep you in my heavens,
& my peace shall I bequeath to you.
Surely, my goodness will I give to you,
not as the world gives,
I will stand between you & death,
I will never leave you.
This is my covenant to you,
my Beloved.
