My Salvation

The Lord is my light,
And my salvation;
Giving me the might,
With affirmation.

So who shall I fear,
He is my stronghold;
Knowing He is near,
As Scripture have told.

When my foes assail,
My flesh try to eat;
The Lord will prevail,
To stumble their feet.

Though an army cliques,
My heart shall not fear;
But the Lord convicts,
Who will commandeer.

I asked of the Lord,
Of what I do seek;
Not to be ignored,
To strengthen when weak.

To dwell in His house,
The days of my life;
Living with my spouse,
Protecting from strife.

I gaze on the Lord,
With grace and beauty;
And in one accord,
With trustful duty.

For He will hide me,
In times of trouble;
Opens eyes to see,
Disguised by rubble.

He lifts on a rock,
Lifting up my head;
And I hear Him talk,
Wisdom I am fed.

I will sacrifice,
With my shouts of joy;
As He gives advice,
For me to employ.
