Psalm 27:1 [The Lord Of Glory Is My Light]
by
Psalm 27:1. 1-6. First Part
The church is our delight and safety.
The Lord of glory is my light,
And my salvation too;
God is my strength, nor will I fear
What all my foes can do.
One privilege my heart desires;
O grant me an abode
Among the churches of thy saints,
The temples of my God!
There shall I offer my requests,
And see thy beauty still,
Shall hear thy messages of love,
And there enquire thy will.
When troubles rise, and storms appear,
There may his children hide:
God has a strong pavilion where
He makes my soul abide.
Now shall my head be lifted high
Above my foes around,
And songs of joy and victory
Within thy temple sound.
