Tune: Hanover
('O worship the King')
Psalm 27 parts
*********
The LORD is my light and my salvation
Whom shall I fear? He great midst the nation
The LORD is the strength of my life, of whom shall
I be afraid? With Him I will true fare well
One thing I have desired of the LORD, see
That will I seek after, that I may be
Dwelling in the house of the LORD all the days
Of my life, to behold His beauty, His ways
In the time of trouble He shall me hide
In His shelter sure I there shall abide
In His temple I shall enquire of Him there
He shall His wisdom and comforts with me share
Hear me, O LORD, when I with my voice call
Unto you, and do answer my prayers all
When you said, seek my face, my heart said to you
Your face, LORD, will I seek, refresh me, renew
Wait on the LORD, and of good courage be
And He shall strengthen your heart, e'en freely
Wait, I say, on the LORD, His goodness He will
Reveal, show to you in land of living still

Verse 1: me singing won't fare well, in the sense of 'goodbye'. Will it fare well, in the sense of 'doing well'?
Nice one Orchi
