P.XXVI | Church Hymn Book#P.XXVII.I | P.XXVII.II |
1 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.
2 One privilege my heart desires;
Oh grant me an abode
Among the churches of thy saints,
The temples of my God.
3 There shall I offer my requests
And see thy beauty still;
Shall hear thy messages of love,
And there inquire thy will.
4 When troubles rise, and storms appear,
There may his children hide;
God has a strong pavilion, where
He makes my soul abide.
5 Now shall my head be lifted high
Above my foes around,
And songs of joy and victory
Within thy temple sound.
