Verse 1 : 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/
I call to the lord/
And he saves me from my enemies.

Pre - Chorus : Praise the lord.

Chorus : The danger of death was all around me/
the waves of destruction rolled over me/
The danger of death was around me/
and the grave set its trap for me/
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/
Then the earth trembled and shook;
the foundations of the mountains rocked and quivered/
because God was angry/
Hear my voice all who are lost/
Hear my voice all who are lost/
Smoke rose from his nostrils/
consuming fire came from his mouth/
burning coals blazed out of it/
He parted the heavens and came down/
dark clouds were under his feet/
He flew swiftly on his winged creature/
he traveled on the wings of the wind/
He covered himself with darkness/
thick clouds, full of water.

Verse 2 : The Lord thundered from the sky/
And the voice of the most high was heard/
He shot his arrows and scattered his enemies/
with flashes of lightning he sent them running/
The floor of the ocean was laid bare/
and the foundations of the earth were uncovered.

Chorus : The danger of death was all around me/
the waves of destruction rolled over me/
The danger of death was around me/
and the grave set its trap for me/
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/
Then the earth trembled and shook;
the foundations of the mountains rocked and quivered/
because God was angry/
Hear my voice all who are lost/
Hear my voice all who are lost/
Smoke rose from his nostrils/
consuming fire came from his mouth/
burning coals blazed out of it/
He parted the heavens and came down/
dark clouds were under his feet/
He flew swiftly on his winged creature/
he traveled on the wings of the wind/
He covered himself with darkness/
thick clouds, full of water.
