Trust the Lord
(and surely He'll deliver you)
By Matthew Kalliman
Psalm 91
When the Lord is at your side, in His shadow you’ll abide
And His wings will cover you
There’ll be shelter in the shade, you won’t have to be afraid
Trust the Lord and surely He’ll deliver you
When you trust the Lord most high and on Him you do rely
You will watch the wicked fall
If ten thousand others died who were standing at your side
Still, the evil wouldn’t come near you at all!
CHORUS
And His angels will be with you so you’ll never walk alone
In their hands you will be steadied lest you stumble on a stone
If a lion or a snake is in the street
You will trample them beneath your very feet!
For the Lord is at your side, in His shadow you’ll abide
And His wings will cover you
There’ll be shelter in the shade, you won’t have to be afraid
Trust the Lord and surely He’ll deliver you
There’s a promise you can claim: God says, “If you know My name
And have set your love on Me
When you call Me I will hear, in your trouble I’ll be near
I will save you, and a long life you’ll receive”
CHORUS
For the Lord is at your side, in His shadow you’ll abide
And His wings will cover you
There’ll be shelter in the shade, you won’t have to be afraid
Trust the Lord
Trust the Lord
Trust the Lord and surely He’ll deliver you
Trust the Lord
Trust the Lord
Trust the Lord and surely He’ll deliver you
And His wings will cover you
There’ll be shelter in the shade, you won’t have to be afraid
Trust the Lord and surely He’ll deliver you
When you trust the Lord most high and on Him you do rely
You will watch the wicked fall
If ten thousand others died who were standing at your side
Still, the evil wouldn’t come near you at all!
CHORUS
And His angels will be with you so you’ll never walk alone
In their hands you will be steadied lest you stumble on a stone
If a lion or a snake is in the street
You will trample them beneath your very feet!
For the Lord is at your side, in His shadow you’ll abide
And His wings will cover you
There’ll be shelter in the shade, you won’t have to be afraid
Trust the Lord and surely He’ll deliver you
There’s a promise you can claim: God says, “If you know My name
And have set your love on Me
When you call Me I will hear, in your trouble I’ll be near
I will save you, and a long life you’ll receive”
CHORUS
For the Lord is at your side, in His shadow you’ll abide
And His wings will cover you
There’ll be shelter in the shade, you won’t have to be afraid
Trust the Lord
Trust the Lord
Trust the Lord and surely He’ll deliver you
Trust the Lord
Trust the Lord
Trust the Lord and surely He’ll deliver you
