5 I laid me down and slept; I waked and rose again, For it is God in whom I trust That doth me still sustain.
5 I laid me down and slept; I wak'd and rose again, For it is God in whom I trust That doth me still sustain.
6 And though ten thousand foes Were round about me laid, (While God is for me, and my help) Why should I be afraid.
7 Arise and save me, Lord, My God the Cheek-bone strake Of all my foes; and wicked mens Devouring teeth did break.
8 To save his chosen doth Belong to God alone; Thy blessing shall for evermore Thy people rest upon.
