Oh, Lord, You are my mighty fortress.
You are my sturdy tower.
All my cares I cast on You,
Needing You every hour.

You are my hope, my strength.
You give me daily bread.
You lift me up, give me joy.
You dry each tear I shed.

When I am feeling sad or down,
You lift my gaze on up.
Instead of fear You bring me hope.
Your love over flows my cup.

You are my peace; that I proclaim.
In You is my eternal rest.
Oh, Lord, thank You for every blessing!
Each gift You give is always best!
