Psalm 121

1I lift up my eyes to the hills; *
from where is my help to come?

2My help comes from the Lord, *
the maker of heaven and earth.

3He will not let your foot be moved *
and he who watches over you will not fall asleep.

4Behold, he who keeps watch over Israel *
shall neither slumber nor sleep;

5The Lord himself watches over you; *
the Lord is your shade at your right hand,

6So that the sun shall not strike you by day, *
nor the moon by night.

7The Lord shall preserve you from all evil; *
it is he who shall keep you safe.

8The Lord shall watch over your going out and
your coming in, *
from this time forth for evermore.

A Collect for Guidance

Heavenly Father, in you we live and move and have our being: We humbly pray you so to guide and govern us by your Holy Spirit, that in all the cares and occupations of our life we may not forget you, but may remember that we are ever walking in your sight; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
