The Lord's My Light (Psalm 27)

Text: Dustin Battles C.M. 2018 update: Garrett Eaton has written a tune for this text! Check it out  here . 1. The Lord's my light, my Savior dear. In Him my heart is stayed. My refuge strong; whom shall I fear? Why should I be afraid? 2. When enemies attack my flesh To conquer and destroy, In this my heart will be refreshed: Jehovah is my joy. 3. One thing have I desired of Him, For this one thing I yearn: To gaze on Him with eyes undimmed, Into His house return. 4. The Lord will hide me in His home When trouble shall arise, For from the Lord I find shalom; On Him I gaze my eyes. 5. Hear me, O Lord; I cry aloud! Be gracious—answer me! I seek You, Lord! My heart is bowed; Hide not Your face from me. 6. Turn not Your face of anger here, Though I am full of sin! Cast not me off, but keep me near; In mercy take me in. 7. Teach me Your wondrous way, O Lord, And lead me in Your path: False witnesses
