One: In this present time, no matter what passes before us,
Many: God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
One: As earth shakes and nations are in an uproar,
Many: God is present with us and is our refuge in times of trouble.
One: As the world trembles in fear and worry,
Many: May we find stillness and peace, knowing God is God of all.
