Mighty God, holy is your name.
You are our stronghold,
the rock of our refuge.
Show us the river of the water of life.
When the cares of our hearts are many
forbid that we should rely
on armies and armaments
but not look to you, O Holy One.
You do great things;
your consolations
cheer our souls.

When the cares of my heart are many,
your consolations cheer my soul.

and my God the rock of my refuge.
Isa. 31:1
Alas for those who go down to Egypt for help
and who rely on horses,
who trust in chariots because they are many
and in horsemen because they are very strong,
but do not look to the Holy One of Israel
or consult the LORD!
Rev. 22:1
Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, bright as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb…

and holy is his name. …” [From the song of Mary]
