1 The LORD is my light and my saviour; 2When the wicked drew near to assail me 3Though against me a host should encamp, 4One thing have I asked of the LORD, 5For he will hide me in his shelter 6And now that my head he has lifted 7Hear, O LORD, my loud cry, 8My heart has said to you, 9Hide not your face from me, 10for father and mother have left me; 11Teach me your way, O LORD: 12Give me not up, O LORD, 13Firm is the faith I cherish, 14Let your heart be courageous and strong,
