“God is our Refuge”, K. 20, is a motet for four-voices in G minor, written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Based on the 46th Psalm, it was composed in July 1765 during the Mozarts’ stay in London as a gift for the British Museum along with one other supposed work: a set of variations in A major, K. 21a. A brief note from a secretary at the British Museum regarding the two works still survives:
