The lord is light and salvation of whom shall i be afraid
my life is found in this stronghold my shelter is in his name
my heart is caught up in seeking for just a glimpse of his face
my mind is set on his promises my mouth is filled with his praise

Do not hide your face from me

One thing I ask, one thing i seek
one thing I long for, to dwell in your beauty
this is my cry, my only aim
just let me stay right here in your glory

The lord is wisdom and mercy and he will teach me his ways
though all others forsake me I’m confident in his grace
when all i have is surrounded and all I’m feeling is pain
I can be sure of your presence come keep me hidden away

one thing I ask, one thing i seek
one thing I long for, to dwell in your beauty
this is my cry, my only aim
just let me stay right here in your glory

I will see the goodness of the lord in the land of the living
I will trust the timing of the lord he is worth my waiting
I will see the goodness of the lord in the land of the living
I will trust the timing of the lord he is worth my waiting

One thing I ask, one thing i seek
one thing I long for, to dwell in your beauty
this is my cry, my only aim
just let me stay right here in your glory
one thing I ask, one thing i seek
one thing I long for, to dwell in your beauty
this is my cry, my only aim
just let me stay right here in your glory

You are worth my waiting
you are worth my waiting
you are worth my waiting
I will trust you, trust you
