Lyics

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.



One privilege my heart desires;

Oh! grant me mine abode

Among the churches of thy saints,

The temples of my God.



There shall I offer my requests,

And see thy beauty still;

Shall hear thy messages of love,

And there inquire thy will.



When troubles rise, and storms appear,

There may his children hide;

God has a strong pavilion, where

He makes my soul abide.



Now shall my head be lifted high

Above my foes around,

And songs of joy and victory

Within thy temple sound.
