1. O Lord, You are the helper when there is no other
You are the refuge, protector, and confidant

2. You are the hope when danger becomes severe
And the matter overwhelms, with no escape seen

3. When souls are in turmoil from fate's intensity
And all say no more, enough, we can bear no more

4. We have lived between fear and caution
With no peace or rest for the soul anymore

5. So grant us security and spare us from harm
