One Thing I Ask of the Lord Lyrics

Chorus: One thing I ask of the Lord, this I seek,

To dwell in the house of the lord, all the days of my life.

1. The Lord is my light and my salvation whom should I fear?

The Lord is my life’s refuge; of whom should I be afraid?

2. He will hide me in his abode – in the day of trouble;

He will conceal me in the shelter of his tent,

He will set me high upon a rock.

3. Even now my head is held high above my enemies on every side.

And I will offer in his tent sacrifices with shouts of gladness,

I will sing and chant praise of the Lord.
