1 I come to you, Lord,

for protection.

Don't let me be ashamed.

Do as you have promised

and rescue me.

2 Listen to my prayer

and hurry to save me.

Be my mighty rock*

and the fortress

where I am safe.

3 You, Lord God,

are my mighty rock

and my fortress.

Lead me and guide me,

so that your name

will be honored.

4 Protect me from hidden traps

and keep me safe.

5 *You are faithful,

and I trust you

because you rescued me.
