'SHIR LA'MAALOT'

Shir LaMaalot, superscription of Psalm 121 is one of the psalms that were sung by the pilgrims as they went up to Jerusalem to celebrate the three Pilgrim festivals.

I lift my eyes to the hills
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of Heaven and Earth
He will not let your foot slip
He who watches over you will not slumber,
Indeed he who watches over Israel
will never slumber nor sleep
The Lord watches over you
The Lord is your shade at your right hand
The sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night
The Lord will keep you from all harm
He will watch over your life
The Lord will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore
Amen
