Psalm 121 I will lift up my eyes to the mountains; From where shall my help come? My help comes from the Lord, Who made heaven and earth.

He will not allow your foot to slip; He who keeps you will not slumber He will not allow your foot to slip; He who keeps you will not slumber. Behold, He who keeps Israel Will neither slumber nor sleep.

The Lord is your keeper; The Lord is your shade on your right hand The Lord is your keeper; The Lord is your shade on your right hand. The sun will not smite you by day, Nor the moon by night.

The Lord will protect you from all evil; He will keep your soul The Lord will protect you from all evil; He will keep your soul. The Lord will guard your going out and your coming in From this time forth and forever. New American Standard Bible : 1995 Update. LaHabra, CA : The Lockman Foundation, 1995

My Helper The Lord Creator The “shamar” (Keeper)

My Helper "Sentry duty was normally assigned to the ordinary soldier. Here it is the Lord who has assumed this responsibility." (Leupold, pg. 870)

The Lord keeps me from me Protection from stumbling, tripping, or slipping My lack of agility My lack of perceptivity Always attentive and focused

The Lord keeps me from evil The sun…that which withers The moon…dangers of the dark Eternal as well as temporal The entirety of our lives

Jude 24-25 Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy,

to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. New American Standard Bible : 1995 Update. LaHabra, CA : The Lockman Foundation, 1995
