1 (A Song of degrees.) I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
2 My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.
3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
7 The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.
8 The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

Matthew Henry's Psalms Chapter 121 Bible commentary...
The safety of the godly.
- We must not rely upon men and means, instruments and second causes. Shall I depend upon the strength of the hills? upon princes and great men? No; my confidence is in God only. Or, we must lift up our eyes above the hills; we must look to God who makes all earthly things to us what they are. We must see all our help in God; from him we must expect it, in his own way and time. This psalm teaches us to comfort ourselves in the Lord, when difficulties and dangers are greatest. It is almighty wisdom that contrives, and almighty power that works the safety of those that put themselves under God's protection. He is a wakeful, watchful Keeper; he is never weary; he not only does not sleep, but he does not so much as slumber. Under this shade they may sit with delight and assurance. He is always near his people for their protection and refreshment. The right hand is the working hand; let them but turn to their duty, and they shall find God ready to give them success. He will take care that his people shall not fall. Thou shalt not be hurt, neither by the open assaults, nor by the secret attempts of thine enemies. The Lord shall prevent the evil thou fearest, and sanctify, remove, or lighten the evil thou feelest. He will preserve the soul, that it be not defiled by sin, and disturbed by affliction; he will preserve it from perishing eternally. He will keep thee in life and death; going out to thy labour in the morning of thy days, and coming home to thy rest when the evening of old age calls thee in. It is a protection for life. The Spirit, who is their Preserver and Comforter, shall abide with them for ever. Let us be found in our work, assured that the blessings promised in this psalm are ours.

My mother taught us to read this Psalm every morning and another Psalm before we went to school. When trouble arose I would pray this Psalm. When it was twenty against one God kept me. When nine of the twenty lied on me the Vice Principle made those nine my foot stools. She told them if anyone touched me they would be expelled from school and return to this school on the following school year. I was thirteen in the ninth grade many years ago. God is my protector, he is amy all in all.

I love psalm 121 because it is all about the fact that my GOD is everything for me and all the members of family. He with me and every member of my family at all times believing and knowing fully well that HIS WORD WILL NEVER RETURN TO HIM VOID. HE KEEPS WATCH OVER/US/ everyone of us - who are called according to HIS purpose in CHRIST JESUS. Our help comes from HIM and not from (anybody else)at all times in JESUS NAME. Praise HIS holy name with me. GOD bless.

This chapter assures the child of God that He,our God is always without ceasing,our protector,provider and friend. His love is like an umbrella that has no end. We are covered in His Blood,therefore we are covered by His Love. His unending Love is like music to my soul!
