Verbatim text from Ps 27:1, 7-8a, 8b-9, 13-14

The Lord is my light and my salvation.

The Lord is my light and my salvation.
Whom should I fear?
The Lord is my life's refuge.
Of whom should I be afraid?

Hear, O Lord, the sound of my call.
Have pity on me and answer me.
Of You my heart speaks.
You my glance seeks.

Your presence, O Lord, I seek.
Hide not Your face from me.
Do not in anger repel Your servant.
You are my helper; cast me not off.

I believe that I shall see the bounty of the Lord
in the land of the living.
Wait for the Lord with courage.
Be stouthearted and wait for the Lord.
