I to the hills by William D. Thompson — Lyrics
I to the hills will lift my eyes; from where shall come my aid?
My help is from the Lord above, who heav’n and earth has made.
He will not let your foot be moved, his own he safely keeps;
With watchful and untiring eyes he slumbers not nor sleeps.

About I to the hills
These words from Psalm 121 express profound trust in divine protection. The singer looks to the hills, a traditional source of danger, but finds assurance in the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth, who watches over his people day and night. This sacred anthem for SATB voices in English offers a message of comfort and steadfast guardianship. The composer William D. Thompson sets this powerful text, ensuring the choir can convey its unwavering faith and the peace that comes from knowing one is always safe under God's care.
