My soul finds rest in God alone;

My soul finds rest in God alone; From him comes my salvation sure. My safety, fortress, sheltering rock— In him alone I am secure.

How long will you assault a man? Do you all seek to lay him low— This leaning wall, this tottering fence— And bring about his overthrow?

They plan his fall from his high place; They take delight in spreading lies. With false and flattering mouths they bless, But in their hearts curse and despise.

Find rest, my soul, in God alone; In him my hope is ever sure. My safety, fortress, sheltering rock— In him alone I am secure.

My honour and salvation rest On God, my rock and mighty fort. O people, trust in him always; To him alone pour out your heart.

The low-born man is but a breath; The high-born man is but a lie. Weighed in a balance, side by side, They come to nothing but a sigh.

Do not seek after wealth by force, Or triumph in ill-gotten gain; And even though your goods increase, Set not your heart on what is vain.

My God has spoken; I have heard That you are strong and loving, Lord. Each one according to his deeds You will assuredly reward.
