When you put that in this atmosphere

The Lord's my light and salvation

Whom shall I fear?

Whom shall I be afraid?


Real simple the song, 

I wanna teach it to you tonight

The Lord is my light and salvation

Whom shall I fear?

Whom shall I be afraid? [x2]


I will wait on you, I will wait on you

I will trust in you, I will trust in you


You all help me, The Lord is my light, everybody sing


The Lord is my light and salvation

Whom shall I fear?

Whom shall I be afraid? 


I will wait on you, I will wait on you

I will trust in you, I will trust in you


The next verse goes like this,

I want you to go home singing:


I will remain confident in this 

I will see the goodness of the Lord


Come on you say it:

I will remain confident in this 

I will see the goodness of the Lord


The Lord's my light and salvation 

Whom shall I fear? Whom shall I be afraid?

The Lord's my light and salvation 

Whom shall I fear? Whom shall I be afraid?


I will wait on you, I will wait on you 

I will trust in you, I will trust in you 


I will remain confident in this 

I will see the goodness of the Lord 


"As you believe that raise your voice and give him praise him praise tonight:"

We set our hope on You

We set our hope on Your love

We set our hope on the One who is the Everlasting God

You are the Everlasting God, You are the Everlasting


We set our hope on You

We set our hope on Your love

We set our hope on the One who is the Everlasting God

You are the Everlasting God, You are the Everlasting 

(repeat *5)



I will remain confident in this 

I will see the goodness of the Lord 


"Sing without the music"

I will remain confident in this 

I will see the goodness of the Lord 


I will wait on you, I will wait on you

I will trust in you, I will trust in you


I will trust in the Lord, I will trust in the Lord


"Raise up you hand and receive Bishop James Morton":

I don't know about you, I don't know about you

But I am going to trust in the Lord

Till I I die I will trust In, In the Lord

Hey, Hey

I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna

Trust in the Lord

I will trust in the Lord

OH yes I will

I'll trust in the lord

Till I, Aye, Till I die
