What Shall I Fear?

The Lord is my light and my salvation—

whom shall I fear?

The Lord is the stronghold of my life—

of whom shall I be afraid?

The Lord is my vanguard and rearguard—

what should inspire fear in me? 

The Lord is my strong defender, my dread warrior—

why should I worry or fret? 

The Lord is my provider and sustainer—

how can I toss and turn and lose sleep? 

The Lord is at my right hand—

what shall I fear? 

The Lord is with me—

of what shall I be afraid?
