I lift up my eyes to the mountains
							
																								
								1
								
									A Canticle in steps. I have lifted up my eyes to the mountains;  from thence help will come to me.
								
							 
																								
								2
								
									My help is from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
								
							 
																								
								3
								
									May he not allow your foot to be moved,  and may he not slumber, who guards you.
								
							 
																								
								4
								
									Behold, he who guards Israel will neither sleep, nor slumber.
								
							 
																								
								5
								
									The Lord is your keeper, the Lord is your protection, above your right hand.
								
							 
																								
								6
								
									The sun will not burn you by day, nor the moon by night.
								
							 
																								
								7
								
									The Lord guards you from all evil. May the Lord guard your soul.
								
							 
																								
								8
								
									May the Lord guard your entrance and your exit,  from this time forward and even forever.
