Blest Be The Lord (lyrics)


Blest be the Lord
Dan Schutte

Refrain: Blessed be the Lord, blest be the Lord,
               The God of mercy, the God who saves.
               I shall not fear the dark of night,
               Nor the arrow that flies by day.

1.       He will release me from the snares of all my foes.
He will protect me from the wicked hands.
Beneath the shadow of His wings I will rejoice.
To find a dwelling place secure. (refrain)

2.       I need not shrink before the terrors of the night,
Nor stand-alone before the light of day.           
No harm shall come to me, no arrow strike me down, no
Evil settle in my soul. (refrain)

3.       Although a thousand strong have fallen at my side,
I’ll not be shaken with the Lord at hand.
His faithful love is all the armor that I need
To wage my battle with the foe. (refrain)
