Whom Shall I Fear (Psalm 27)
The Lord is my light, my salvation
Whom shall I fear, whom shall I dread
Though darkness surrounds, I won't be shaken
He lifts me high above the dead
When enemies rise, I won't run away
I stand in His love, I stand in His grace
The Lord is my light
And my salvation
Whom shall I fear
Whom shall I fear
The Lord is my light
and my salvation
Whom shall I fear?
Whom shall I fear
Trouble may come, but I am protected
Safe in the shelter of His wings
My heart will not faint, I am connected
To heaven's joy, and I will sing
I lift up my head, I follow Your way
I trust in Your love more every day
The Lord is my light
And my salvation
Whom shall I fear
Whom shall I fear
The Lord is my light
and my salvation
Whom shall I fear
Whom shall I fear
Whom shall I fear, if You are for me
You are my strength, my victory
One thing I ask, one thing I seek
To live in Your house, Your glory to see
Oh, I will wait, I will believe
You are the hope that's holding me
The Lord is my light
and my salvation
Whom shall I fear
Whom shall I fear
The Lord is my light
And my salvation
Whom shall I fear
Whom shall I fear
Wait for the Lord, be strong and take heart
He never fails, He won't depart
Lift up your eyes, the King is near
He is my song, whom shall I fear
“Of David. The LORD is my light and my help; whom should I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life, whom should I dread?”

1Of David. The LORD is my light and my help; whom should I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life, whom should I dread?
2When evil men assail me to devour my flesh— it is they, my foes and my enemies, who stumble and fall.
3Should an army besiege me, my heart would have no fear; should war beset me, still would I be confident.
4One thing I ask of the LORD, only that do I seek: to live in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD, to frequent His temple.
5He will shelter me in His pavilion on an evil day, grant me the protection of His tent, raise me high upon a rock.
6Now is my head high over my enemies round about; I sacrifice in His tent with shouts of joy, singing and chanting a hymn to the LORD.
7Hear, O LORD, when I cry aloud; have mercy on me, answer me.
8In Your behalf my heart says: “Seek My face!” O LORD, I seek Your face.
9Do not hide Your face from me; do not thrust aside Your servant in anger; You have ever been my help. Do not forsake me, do not abandon me, O God, my deliverer.
10Though my father and mother abandon me, the LORD will take me in.
11Show me Your way, O LORD, and lead me on a level path because of my watchful foes.
12Do not subject me to the will of my foes, for false witnesses and unjust accusers have appeared against me.
13Had I not the assurance that I would enjoy the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living…
14Look to the LORD; be strong and of good courage! O look to the LORD!
