1. How I love you, Lord!You are my defender.
2. The Lord is my protector;he is my strong fortress.My God is my protection,and with him I am safe.He protects me like a shield;he defends me and keeps me safe.
3. I call to the Lord,and he saves me from my enemies.Praise the Lord!
4. The danger of death was all round me;the waves of destruction rolled over me.
5. The danger of death was round me,and the grave set its trap for me.
6. In my trouble I called to the Lord;I called to my God for help.In his temple he heard my voice;he listened to my cry for help.
