84. God is my strong salvation -

1 God is my strong salvation -
what foe have I to fear?
In darkness and temptation
my light, my help is near:

2 Though hosts encamp around me,
firm to the fight I stand!
What terror can confound me,
with God at my right hand?

3 Place on the Lord reliance,
my soul, with courage wait -
His truth my reassurance
when faint and desolate:

4 His might my heart shall strengthen,
His love my joy increase;
mercy my days shall lengthen,
the Lord will give me peace.
