For the leader. A song of the Korahites. According to alamoth.

God is our refuge and our strength, an ever present help in distress.

Thus we do not fear, though earth be shaken and mountains quake to the depths of the sea, though its waters rage and foam and mountains totter at its surging.

The Lord of hosts is with us; our stronghold is the God of Jacob.

Streams of the river gladden the city of God, the holy dwelling of the Most High.

God is in its midst; it shall not be shaken; God will help it at break of day.

Though nations rage and kingdoms totter, God's voice thunders and the earth trembles.

The Lord of hosts is with us; our stronghold is the God of Jacob.

Come and see the works of the Lord, who has done fearsome deeds on earth; who stops wars to the ends of the earth, breaks the bow, splinters the spear, and burns the shields with fire; who says: "be still and confess that I am God! I am exalted among the nations, exalted on the earth."

The Lord of hosts is with us; our stronghold is the God of Jacob.
