Jesus, My Lord

Jesus, my Lord, is a wall about me,
Dwelling within, I can dwell secure;
Nothing can harm me, for naught can touch me
Save what He willeth that I endure.

Jesus, my Lord, is my shield and buckler,
Unto all evil the way is barred;
Nothing can harm me, for nought can reach me
Save what He willeth shall cross His guard.

Jesus, my Lord, is my lofty tower
Where He hath set me in peace on high;
Nothing can harm me, for naught can find me
Save what He willeth shall pass Him by.

-- Annie Johnson Flint --

Psalms 18:2 The LORD is my rock,
and my fortress, and my deliverer;
my God, my strength, in whom I will trust;
my buckler, and the horn of my salvation,
and my high tower.
