The Lord Is My Light


Michael Avolicino’s appealing and melodic setting of Psalm 27 is a heartfelt expression of the psalmist’s confident hope in God, who gives us the courage to overcome the darkness and fears of life.

The Lord is my light, the Lord is my light,
the Lord is my light and my salvation.
Tell me now, who should I fear?
The Lord is the stronghold, the strength of my life.
Tell me now, who should I fear?

One thing I ask, one thing I seek:
to dwell in the house of the Lord
all my days; only to gaze
on the wonder of the Lord,
for the Lord will hide me in his shelter.
In times of trouble the Lord covers me.
