God is always the keeper and guardian of the covenant community and its members. He answers prayers (120:1), even for those sullied by their own sin (120:2-4) and their world environment (120:5-7). The God of Protection should be our focus (121:1), as: He created all (121:2), cares about details of our journey (121:3,8), is always on duty (121:4), is knowable through Israel’s history (121:4), watches over His people in covenant (121:5), protects from world system & spiritual enemies (121:6-7), and does all this forever (121:8).
