The Lord Is My Light is a stirring setting of the first verses of Psalm 27, a text of faith and assurance. The anthem employs sprechstimme (speaking on pitch) and a colorful organ part to paint a musical picture of God's triumph over the forces of evil threatening us. The powerful opening and closing sections contrast with a lyrical, gentle middle section as the choir prays "to dwell in God's house all the days of my life."
