1 Lord, you are my Light and my Savior, so why should I be afraid of anyone? The Lord is where my life is safe, so I will be afraid of no one!
2 Evil people might attack me. They might try to destroy my body. Yes, my enemies might attack me and try to destroy me, but they will stumble and fall.
3 Even if an army surrounds me, I will not be afraid. Even if people attack me in war, I will trust in the Lord.
4 I ask only one thing from the Lord. This is what I want most: Let me live in the Lord’S house all my life, enjoying the Lord’S beauty and spending time in his palace.
5 He will protect me when I am in danger. He will hide me in his tent. He will take me up to his place of safety.
6 If he will help me defeat the enemies around me, I will offer sacrifices in his tent with shouts of joy. I will sing and play songs to honor the Lord.
