Passage:
1 I lift up my eyes to the hills.
From where does my help come?
2 My help comes from the LORD,
who made heaven and earth.
3 He will not let your foot be moved;
he who keeps you will not slumber.
4 Behold, he who keeps Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The LORD is your keeper;
the LORD is your shade on your right hand.
6 The sun shall not strike you by day,
nor the moon by night.
7 The LORD will keep you from all evil;
he will keep your life.
8 The LORD will keep
your going out and your coming in
from this time forth and forevermore.
(Psalm 121:1–8 ESV)

Psalm 121 (I Lift My Eyes) by Jordan Kauflin, Kristyn Getty, Matt Papa, and Matthew Merker
Lyrics:
I lift my eyes up to the hills
From where does my help come?
My help comes from the Maker of
The heavens and the earth
He will not let my foot be moved
He keeps my journey safe
O my soul praise the Lord Most High
Strong to save He upholds my life
Forevermore He will be my light
I lift my eyes up to the Lord Most High
He is the shade at my right hand
My shelter in the storm
No sun by day nor moon by night
Shall ever bring me harm
He will not slumber will not sleep
He watches all my ways
I lift my eyes up to the hills
From where does my help come
My help comes from the Maker of
The heavens and the earth
The God of Israel is my guide
Wherever I may go
And in His strength I will abide
Until He leads me home
I lift my eyes up to the Lord most high
Prayer:
This is another day, O Lord. I know not what it will bring forth, but make me ready, Lord, for whatever it may be. If I am to stand up, help me to stand bravely. If I am to sit still, help me to sit quietly. If I am to lie low, help me to do it patiently. And if I am to do nothing, let me do it gallantly. Make these words more than words, and give me the Spirit of Jesus. Amen.
