PSALM 46 (a) C.M.

1 God is our refuge and our strength,
our ever-present aid;
2 And therefore, though the earth gives way,
we will not be afraid.

Though mountains fall into the sea,
3 though waters foam and roar,
We will not fear, though mountains quake
as waves engulf the shore.

4 A river flows, whose streams delight
the city of our God—
The holy place, in which the LORD
Most High has his abode.

5 God is within his holy place;
the city will not yield,
For God will come at break of day
to be her help and shield.

6 The nations are in disarray;
the kingdoms disappear.
God speaks, and at his mighty voice
the whole earth melts with fear.

7 The LORD Almighty is with us
to strengthen and sustain;
For Jacob’s God our strong defence
and fortress will remain.

8 Come, see the works the LORD has done—
the judgments he commands,
The desolations he has brought
to pass in many lands.

9 In every land throughout the earth
he makes all conflict cease;
He shatters bow and spear and shield,
and brings his reign of peace.

10 Be still, and know that I am God,
on earth exalted high;
And all the nations of the world
my name will glorify.

11 The LORD Almighty is with us
to strengthen and sustain;
For Jacob’s God our strong defence
and fortress will remain.
