Tune: Buckland
('Loving Shepherd of thy sheep')
Psalm 18 v.1-3
********
You, O Lord, are my strength true
I trust whole-hearted in you
You my rock and my fortress
You come to my aid and bless
Yes, you are my God, my strength
Have helped me soon and at length
You my buckler, my shield sure
Shall defend me evermore
You, strength of my salvation
You rescue from each nation
You my high tower, stronghold
Keep me safe within your fold
I will call upon the Lord
Trusting in His living word
He is worthy to be praised
Saved by you, I am amazed

- Comment from author about the poem: A hymn-poem in 7.7.7.7. format (i.e. syllables per line) I should call poems 'format' really, and not 'metre'. Metre has more to do with stressed and unstressed syllables.
