1 The Lord is the strength of our lives;
of whom shall we be afraid?
Though foes may be near to destroy,
the Lord will be our light. [Refrain]
2 One thing have we asked of the Lord,
yes, this is the thing we seek:
To dwell in the house of the Lord;
to live with God forever. [Refrain]
3 When burdens are heavy to bear,
our shelter is God alone.
Our feet are lifted high;
yes, high upon a rock. [Refrain]
4 We walk in the strength of the Lord,
God's love is ever sure.
We shout that the world may hear,
we sing a joyful song. [Refrain] Used With Tune: SIYAHAMBA Text Sources: South African
