1. Light, space, zest—that’s God!So, with him on my side I’m fearless,afraid of no one and nothing.
2. When vandal hordes ride downready to eat me alive,Those bullies and toughsfall flat on their faces.
3. When besieged,I’m calm as a baby.When all hell breaks loose,I’m collected and cool.
4. I’m asking God for one thing,only one thing:To live with him in his housemy whole life long.I’ll contemplate his beauty;I’ll study at his feet.
11-12. Point me down your highway, God;direct me along a well-lighted street;show my enemies whose side you’re on.Don’t throw me to the dogs,those liars who are out to get me,filling the air with their threats.
13-14. I’m sure now I’ll see God’s goodnessin the exuberant earth.Stay with God!Take heart. Don’t quit.I’ll say it again:Stay with God.
