Incarnate God! - Psalm 91 NCG - Treasury 278

1. Incarnate God! the soul that knows
Your name’s mysterious pow’r,
Will dwell in undisturbed repose
Nor fear the trying hour.
Your wisdom, faithfulness, and love
To feeble, frail and worn,
A shelter and a refuge prove
From enemy and storm.
2. In vain the fowler spreads his net
To draw them from Your care;
Your timely call instructs their feet
To shun the artful snare.
When, like a baneful pestilence,
Sin mounts its thousands down,
On ev’ry side without defense
His grace secures His own.
3. No midnight terrors haunt their bed,
No arrow wounds by day;
Unhurt on serpents they shall tread,
If found in duty’s way.
Angels unseen, attend the saints
And bear them in their arms,
To cheer the spirit when it faints,
And guard their life from harms.
4. The angels’ Lord Himself is nigh
To them that love His name;
Is quick to save them when they cry,
And put their foes to shame.
The Lord will answer when they call
Long as they sojourn here,
Because the Lord is their defense
What have the saints to fear?
