The Lord of Glory Is My Light

Melody -

Isaac Watts, 1674-1748

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;
O 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.
