A Very Present Help
  You are my hiding place, You preserve me from trouble.
You surround me with songs of deliverance.  Psalms 32: 7
 
 
God is our refuge and strength, 
a very present help in trouble. 
Therefore we will not fear,
though the earth should change 
and though the mountains slip
into the heart of the sea; 
Though its waters roar and foam, 
though the mountains quake
at its swelling pride. 
Cease striving
and know that I am God; 
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth.
The LORD of hosts is with us; 
the God of Jacob is our stronghold. 
Psalms 46: 1-3, 10-11
 
The LORD is good, 
a stronghold in the day of trouble,
& He knows those 
who take refuge in Him. 
Nahum 1: 7
 
I love Thee, O Lord, my strength.
The Lord is my rock and my fortress,
and my deliverer.
My God, my rock,
in Whom I take refuge;
my shield, & the horn of my salvation,
my stronghold.
I call upon the Lord,
Who is worthy to be praised.
Psalms 18: 1-3
I will lift up my eyes to the mountains;
From whence shall my help come? 
My help comes from the LORD,
Who made heaven and earth. 
He will not allow your foot to slip;
He who keeps you will not slumber. 
Behold, He who keeps Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep. 
The LORD is your keeper;
The LORD is your shade 
on your right hand. 
The sun will not smite you by day,
Nor the moon by night. 
The LORD will protect you 
from all evil;
He will keep your soul. 
The LORD will guard
your going out and your coming in
from this time forth and forever
 Psalms 121
 
The LORD is my light and my salvation;
Whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the defense of my life;
Whom shall I dread?
Psalms 27: 1
 
For You are my rock & my fortress; 
for Your name's sake
You will lead me & guide me.
Psalms 31: 3 
The LORD also will be
a stronghold for the oppressed, 
a stronghold in times of trouble; 
and those who know Your name
will put their trust in You, 
for You, O LORD,
have not forsaken
those who seek You. 
Psalms 9: 9,10
 
But as for me,
I shall sing of Your strength;
yes, I shall joyfully sing
of Your lovingkindness 
in the morning, 
for You have been my stronghold 
and a refuge in 
the day of my distress. 
 Psalms 59: 16
 
Because he has loved Me,
therefore I will deliver him;
I will set him securely on high,
because he has known My name.
He will call upon Me,
and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble;
I will rescue him,
and honor him.
With a long life I will honor him,
and let him behold My salvation.
  Psalms 91: 14-16
