Hymnal: The Southern Harmony, and Musical Companion (New ed. thoroughly rev. and much enl.) #173b (1854) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics:
1.
My refuge is the God of love:
My foes insult and cry,
Fly like a timorous, trembling dove,
(Repeat previous line twice),
To distant mountains fly,
Since I have placed my trust in God,
A refuge always nigh,
Why should I like a timorous bird,
To distant mountains fly.
