My help comes from the lord:

Help us, lord, to remember who you are; the Creator of heaven and earth, from whom we spring and to whom we will return.

He watches over you, he will not let your foot slip:

When we feel sometimes that life is sliding out of our control and understanding, help us to trust in him whose watch over us is constant.

The lord is your shade at your right hand:

When threatened by fear, anxiety, illness or loss, we give thanks for the mercy of your Presence to shelter us as we walk difficult paths and weather the storms.

The lord will keep you from all harm:

Thank you Father, that you watch over us in all circumstances and have given us new life and hope through the redeeming sacrifice of Jesus Christ our lord.

Amen.
