"Psalm 121 has been set to music by many composers (Schubert, Mendelssohn). Sometimes also in the official French version (Manneke), as published as by Louis Segond (LSG). Here I also chose the French version for this work. From the complete French text, which is listed below with Dutch translation, I have selected a few inspiring phrases. The work evolves from anxious awaiting the rescue by the Eternal to a steady trust therein."

¶Lyrics / Text

Je lève mes yeux vers les montagnes, D'ou me viendra le secours? Le secours me vient de l'Éternel, Qui a fait les cieux et la terre. L'Éternel te gardera de tout mal, Il gardera ton âme; L'Éternel gardera ton départ et ton arrivé, Dès maintenant et à jamais. Je lève mes yeux vers les montagnes, Le secours me vient de l’Éternel.
