1 Light, space, zest—that’s God!So, with him on my side I’m fearless,afraid of no one and nothing.
2 When vandal hordes ride downready to eat me alive,Those bullies and toughsfall flat on their faces.
3 When besieged,I’m calm as a baby.When all hell breaks loose,I’m collected and cool.
4 I’m asking God for one thing,only one thing:To live with him in his housemy whole life long.I’ll contemplate his beauty;I’ll study at his feet.
5 That’s the only quiet, secure placein a noisy world,The perfect getaway,far from the buzz of traffic.
6 God holds me head and shouldersabove all who try to pull me down.I’m headed for his place to offer anthemsthat will raise the roof!Already I’m singing God-songs;I’m making music to God.
7-9 Listen, God, I’m calling at the top of my lungs:“Be good to me! Answer me!”When my heart whispered, “Seek God,”my whole being replied,“I’m seeking him!”Don’t hide from me now!
