Ye Are Kept

Ye are kept by the power of God
Safe in His hand, where e’er you trod
Wherein this promise now rejoice
Sing praises, lift ye up your voice.

Ye are kept by His mighty arm
Hidden there from the Devil’s harm.
Though ye are tempted, in this rest:
He is perfecting through this test.

Ye are kept by our Jesus Christ
Thus serve Him with your heart and life.
Protected from the Devil’s darts
Yield to Him mind and soul and heart.

I am kept by Thy power, O Lord
As I take up Thy Shield, Thy Sword.
I will fight daily enemies
Lord, help me! Thine the glory be.
