Where My Help Comes From

A Song of Ascents

When I am aware that I need help
I look just beyond
Where my eyes usually look
My help comes from The One
Powerful and amazing enough
To have created the universe
Nothing happens to me
That he is not in control of
Not a slip of my foot
He is always watching
I get tired and I sleep
But he does not,
God watches over me
He is part of the dance that is my life
He is my shade, my sun,
The moonlight,
When those other things have gone

He shall protect me from evil
He restores, recharges my soul

He has been with me
From the day I took my first breath,
And will be with me
Until the moment of my death
What more could I possibly need?
