My dwelling place is God Most High My refuge and my fortress When plague and pestilence draw nigh I'm hidden in His Presence When terrors fall and arrows fly His shield will be my safety When stones across my pathway lie On angels' wings I'm carried My dwelling place is God Most High A present help in danger I rest secure in love's pure light Beneath my Master's favor He freed me from the fowler's snare Where sin and shame had bound me Deceived I'd made my refuge there Till fearless He came for me Wonderful, powerful My hope and my defender Mighty God, Emmanuel My dwelling place forever My dwelling place is God Most High I'll never seek another For I am His and He is mine My heart He'll keep forever I know the Name on Whom I call He promises to answer With life He satisfies my soul And crowns me with His pleasure
