One-Protect me, O God, for in you I take refuge.
All-You are our safe place. This is our sanctuary where we seek you.
One-The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup; you hold my lot.
All-I keep the Lord always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
One-We stand firm because we keep God before us.
All-Therefore, we will rejoice and be glad.
One-Therefore my heart is glad, and my soul rejoices; my body also rests secure.
All-We rest secure in you, Holy One.
One-You show me the path of life. In your presence there is fullness of joy; in your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
The words in Italics are from Psalm 16 in the New Revised Standard Version.
