He is the lamp that lights my pathway,
That directs my feet from going astray.
He is my shelter from the storm,
That harbors me from life's harm.
He wipes my tears and gives me joy,
It will daunt the enemy's ploy.
He gives me peace in times of duress,
That stills me and gives me rest.
He is my best friend through thick and thin,
Always there from beginning to end.
His words I will eat and be fed,
When I am hungry and need bread.
He is my buckler, my fortress,
My life is truly blessed!
- Leona M. Mars -
Psalm 18:10
As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is tried; he is a buckler to all those that trust in him.
