The Saint's Trial and Safety

Isaac Watts (1719) • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 125

Verse 1

Unshaken as the sacred hills, And fix'd as mountains stand; Firm as a rock the soul shall rest That trusts th' Almighty hand.

Verse 2

Not walls nor hills could guard so well Fair Salem's happy ground, As these eternal arms of love That ev'ry saint surround.

Verse 3

Do good, O Lord, do good to those Who cleave to thee in heart, Who on thy truth alone repose, Nor from thy law depart.
