Psalm 27 | The LORD Is My Light (MSAL)

Lyrics and music by Jody Killingsworth

When vile men arose to eat me for bread
I watched as my foes all stumbled and fled
If numbers increase, still my heart will have peace, I’ll hold up my head

The Lord is my light, my help and salvation
Whom shall I fear with God on my side?
The defense of my life, high rock and foundation
When I am spent, I run to His tent, enter and hide

One thing have I asked, one thing I’ll pursue
Just to dwell in Your house till my journey is through
Beholding Your face, contemplating Your grace, gazing at You

The Lord is my light, my help and salvation
Whom shall I fear with God on my side?
The defense of my life, high rock and foundation
When I am spent, I run to His tent, enter and hide

If father forsakes and mother disowns
And although my heart aches, I will not be alone
My God will be near, wipe away every tear, and call me His own

I would have despaired had I not perceived
All the good things prepared for those of us who believe
Inspired by Your grace, I’ll be seeking Your face till I get what I need

The Lord is my light, my help and salvation
Whom shall I fear with God on my side?
The defense of my life, high rock and foundation
When I am spent, I run to His tent, enter and hide

The Lord is my light, my help and salvation
Whom shall I fear with God on my side?
The defense of my life, high rock and foundation
When I am spent, I run to His tent, enter and hide

When I am spent, I run to His tent, enter and hide
Enter and hide
