The Lord
He is our sun and shield
Our buckler and our guard
And hence we stand and will not yield
Though enemies press hard.
Like as a shield the blow keeps off
The enemy lays on
So He prevents all hurt to us
And saves us every one.
Let foes strike at us as they please
Upon the head or heart;
This precious shield which we do use
Secures us every part.
From sin
from Satan and the world
No art we need to fear
Since Thou art such a shield to us
Our God and Savior dear!
Our shield and our great reward
To Thee all praise be given;
Who with Thy saving help afford
Until we come to Heaven.
