Whom Shall I Fear? - Psalm 27
[Intro]
I’ve seen enemies rise…
I’ve heard fear whisper my name...
But I got something louder.
[Verse 1]
The Lord is my light, He’s the strength I own
When fear tries creeping, I stand alone —
Not 'cause I’m tough, but I know Who’s near
So I ask one question: Whom shall I fear?
Evil came up with teeth in their grin
But they stumbled, fell, couldn’t even get in
Armies rise, hearts may shake
But my faith don't flinch — I know what’s at stake
I’ve asked one thing — not gold or fame
But to dwell in His house and praise His name
To gaze on beauty, stay in the light
While the world goes dark, I walk upright
[Hook]
Whom shall I fear? Who gonna shake me?
If the Lord is near, fear can’t break me
Enemies rise, but my knees don’t drop
Even in war, I won’t stop
One thing I seek, one thing I chase
To dwell in Your house, to live in grace
You lift me high when the storm comes near
So I sing out loud: whom shall I fear?
[Verse 2]
In the day of trouble, He hides me deep
In the shelter of grace, where the shadows sleep
He sets me high, above all the pain
So I look down on what tried to chain
My head held high though the threats stay loud
I offer my praise, not to please a crowd
But to drown out lies that echo at night
To remind myself Who fights my fight
Don’t turn away, Lord — I’ve seen too much
Your light's the only thing I trust
When my father and mother left me cold
You picked me up and called me bold
[Hook]
Whom shall I fear? Who gonna shake me?
If the Lord is near, fear can’t break me
Enemies rise, but my knees don’t drop
Even in war, I won’t stop
One thing I seek, one thing I chase
To dwell in Your house, to live in grace
You lift me high when the storm comes near
So I sing out loud: whom shall I fear?
[Speed Rap]
Teach me Your way when my mind gets lost
Lead me on paths where the fear gets crossed
Enemies lie, but I stand still
I wait on You — You bend Your will
False witnesses, breathing threats
Still I walk, no regrets
I would’ve fainted, I would’ve quit
If I didn’t believe You were in the midst
Land of the living, that’s my hope
Even in fire, I learn to cope
So I wait on the Lord, yeah I build that spine
Courage in my chest, fire in my mind
[Hook]
Whom shall I fear? Who gonna shake me?
If the Lord is near, fear can’t break me
Enemies rise, but my knees don’t drop
Even in war, I won’t stop
One thing I seek, one thing I chase
To dwell in Your house, to live in grace
You lift me high when the storm comes near
So I sing out loud: whom shall I fear?
[Outro]
Wait on the Lord…
Be strong.
Let your heart take courage…
And wait.
