Psalm 125: Endurance

 Throughout my life my land has seen
     Dark foes on every side,
 And through my life my heart has been
     Filled full with evil pride.
 
 But only short will you allow
     Those forces in the land
 Who uproot what the righteous plow
     With steady faithful hand.
 
 You keep my soul protected from
     Such wicked evil ways.
 Down from the mountains you have come
     To give eternal days.
 
 You promise to the righteous man
     A respite from the fight,
 And in your holy loving plan
     You banish dark with light.
  
 So keep my soul now free from all
     Dark enemies within,
 And take me to your holy hall
     Where I am free from sin.
