Fits tune: Rock of Ages (Hymn of same name)
Based on part of Psalm 18
*********
When the LORD did David aid
End of his enemies made
He did pen a psalm of joy
And his tongue it did employ
To praise his strong Lord on high
Who he did for refuge fly
Sang, I you Lord will I love
Present comfort, holy dove
And He strong in might and deed
Seeing me came to my need
He my strength, my rock, fortress
Looked upon me and did bless
He too my deliver sure
My God, my strength, evermore
I will in Him always trust
I who am mere man and dust
But He my shield and my tower
He will [my] enemies devour
He my horn, that strength and power
That I do need every hour
I unto the Lord will call
Worthy to be praised by all
So from my enemies shall
Be saved, for He shall not fail
For who is God, He the Lord
None other, I am assured
Who except our God a rock
Though my enemies may mock
He will help, deliver me
Through Him victory I shall see
