  • "I Lift My Eyes" is a setting of Psalm 121 in Arabic. Originally composed for the Grammy-nominated soundtrack to the video game 'Old World', the song is performed by Lebanese star Abeer Nehme, backed by the Angel City Chorale. Christopher Tin plays piano, Sandro Friedrich plays duduk (not shown), and Jamie Papish plays all the percussion. The music video is directed by Tayo Amos.
    The strings were recorded by the Budapest Scoring Orchestra, conducted by Péter Illényi.
    'Old World' is a turn-based strategy game by Mohawk Games, the game studio founded by legendary 4X game designer Soren Johnson (Civilization, Spore, Offworld Trading Company). The game is available on Steam and the Epic Games store.

    Psalm 121
    God the Help of Those Who Seek Him
    A Song of Ascents.
    I will lift up my eyes to the hills-
    From whence comes my help?
    My help comes from the Lord,
    Who made heaven and earth.
    He will not allow your foot to be moved;
    He who keeps you will not slumber.
    Behold, He who keeps Israel
    Shall neither slumber nor sleep.
    The Lord is your keeper;
    The Lord is your shade at your right hand.
    The sun shall not strike you by day,
    Nor the moon by night.
    The Lord shall preserve you from all evil;
    He shall preserve your soul.
    The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming in
    From this time forth, and even forevermore.
