MayDay

The name of the Lord is a strong tower;
The righteous run to it and are safe.
~ Proverbs 18:10

But You, Lord, are a shield around me,
My glory, and the One who lifts my head.
~ Psalm 3:3 

The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my savior,
My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge;
My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
~Psalm 18:2

In you, Lord, I have taken refuge;
let me never be put to shame;
deliver me in your righteousness.
Turn Your ear to me,
come quickly to my rescue;

be my rock of refuge,
a strong fortress to save me.
Since You are my rock and my fortress,
for the sake of Your name lead and guide me.

~ Psalm 31:1-3

Rescue me from my enemies, my God;
be my fortress against those who are attacking me.
Rescue me from those who practice injustice,
And save me from men of bloodshed…
You are my strength, I watch for You;
You, God, are my fortress,
my God on whom I can rely.

But I will sing of your strength,
in the morning I will sing of your love;
for You are my fortress,
my refuge in times of trouble.
You are my strength, I sing praise to you;
You, God, are my fortress,
my God on whom I can rely.
~ from Psalm 59

Truly He is my rock and my salvation;
He is my fortress, I shall never be shaken.
~ Psalm 62:2

One who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
Will lodge in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress,
My God, in whom I trust!”
~ Psalm 91:1-2
