Mahalia Jackson
The Lord Is My Light
[Chorus]
The Lord is my light and my salvation
Whom, then shall I fear?
Whom, then shall I fear?
The Lord is the strength of my life
The Lord is the strength of my life
Of whom then shall I be afraid?

[Verse]
Though a host of men were laid against me
Yet shall not my heart be afraid
And though there rose up war against me
Yet will I put my trust in Him
For in the time of trouble
He shall hide me in His tabernacle
Yea, in the secret places of His dwelling shall He hide me
And set me up upon a rock of stone

[Chorus]
The Lord is my light and my salvation
Whom, then shall I fear?
Whom, then shall I fear?
The Lord is the strength of my life
The Lord is the strength of my life
Of whom then shall I be afraid?
Of whom then shall I be afraid?
