God Our Refuge

For the choir director. A song of the sons of Korah. According to Alamoth.

Psa 46:1

God is our refuge and strength,

a helper who is always found

in times of trouble.

Psa 46:2

Therefore we will not be afraid,

though the earth trembles

and the mountains topple

into the depths of the seas,

Psa 46:3

though its water roars and foams

and the mountains quake with its turmoil.Selah

Psa 46:4

There is a river —

its streams delight the city of God,

the holy dwelling place of the Most High.

Psa 46:5

God is within her; she will not be toppled.

God will help her when the morning dawns.

Psa 46:6

Nations rage, kingdoms topple;

the earth melts when he lifts his voice.

Psa 46:7

The LORD of Armies is with us;

the God of Jacob is our stronghold.Selah

Psa 46:8

Come, see the works of the LORD,

who brings devastation on the earth.

Psa 46:9

He makes wars cease throughout the earth.

He shatters bows and cuts spears to pieces;

he sets wagons ablaze.

Psa 46:10

“Stop fighting, and know that I am God,

exalted among the nations, exalted on the earth.”

Psa 46:11

The LORD of Armies is with us;

the God of Jacob is our stronghold.Selah
