(Immediately Following the Service)

Psalm 91“Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the

shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge

and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” Surely he will save

you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence. He

will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find

refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart. You will

not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the

pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys

at midday. A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your

right hand, but it will not come near you. You will only observe with

your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked. If you say, “The

Lord is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling, no

harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent. For

he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your

ways; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike

your foot against a stone. You will tread on the lion and the cobra;

you will trample the great lion and the serpent. “Because he loves

me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he

acknowledges my name. He will call on me, and I will answer him;

I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. With

long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.”
