In times of trouble, You are my refuge;
You are my heavenly song forever.
You are my all-sufficient Helper,
my good and gracious Lord.
You are my beloved,
beautiful in every way.
1
You broke and destroyed the chains of slavery,
and You stayed close to those who had no one to help them.
You remembered me, Your servant, in Your great mercy,
and lovingly drew me close to Your wounded heart.
2
Even if there is great hunger and hardship
in this wilderness where I live,
how beautiful and precious are Your feet!
Until the day I die,
Your holy name will be my one true rest
here on this earth.
3
Even if enemies surround me on every side,
and countless fears rise up against me,
O incomparable Treasure of Love,
I will continue to bow
at Your merciful and holy feet.
4
I will leave behind the many pleasures of this world
and run toward Your pure and beautiful presence.
Even when difficulties come, I will sing my songs of praise,
and in the end, I will receive the rewards of victory.
