The Eye of the Lord

The Lord looks down from heaven;
He observes everyone.
He gazes on all the inhabitants of the earth
from His dwelling place.
He alone crafts their hearts;
He considers all their works.
A king is not saved by a large army;
a warrior will not be delivered by great strength.
The horse is a false hope for safety;
it provides no escape by its great power.
Now the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him—
those who depend on His faithful love
to deliver them from death
and to keep them alive in famine.
We wait for the Lord;
He is our help and shield.
For our hearts rejoice in Him,
because we trust in His holy name.
May Your faithful love rest on us, Lord,
for we put our hope in You.
