Benediction<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
I raise my eyes toward the mountains. Where will my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth.
God won\u2019t let your foot slip.
Your protector won\u2019t fall asleep on the job.
No! Israel\u2019s protector never sleeps or rests!
The Lord is your protector; the Lord is your shade right beside you.
The sun won\u2019t strike you during the day; neither will the moon at night.
The Lord will protect you from all evil; God will protect your very life.
The Lord will protect you on your journeys\u2014whether going or coming\u2014
from now until forever from now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
O Lord of hosts!
2 My soul longs, indeed it faints
for the courts of the Lord;
my heart and my flesh sing for joy
to the living God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
and the swallow a nest for herself,
where she may lay her young,
at your altars, O Lord of hosts,
my King and my God.
4 Happy are those who live in your house,
ever singing your praise.Selah<\/p>\n\n\n\n
than a thousand elsewhere.
I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God
than live in the tents of wickedness.
11 For the Lord God is a sun and shield;
he bestows favour and honour.
No good thing does the Lord withhold
from those who walk uprightly.
12 O Lord of hosts,
happy is everyone who trusts in you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
