2 Like as a Shield the blow keeps off The Enemy lays on; So thou keeps off all hurt from us, And saves us every one.
3 Let Foes strike at us as they please, On the head, or the heart; This precious Shield which we do use, Secureth every part.
4 From Sin, from Satan, and the World, No Dart we need to fear; Since thou art such a Shield to us, O God, and Saviour dear.
5 Our Shield, and our great Reward, To thee all praise be given; Who wilt thy saving-help afford, Until we come to Heaven.
