Psalm 121
( I lift my eyes in eager love ; My footsteps he in safety keeps ; He suffers not, in noonday might ; From every snare, from every sin ; Ich heb mein Augen sehnlich auf ; Mein Hülfe kommt mir von den Herrn ; Er führet dich auf rechter Bahn ; Der treuer Hüter Israel ; Vor allem umfall gnädiglich ; Der Sonnen Hitz, des Mondes Schein ; Kein Übel muss begegnen dir ; Der Herr dein Ausgang stets bewahr )
