VERSE 1 (Male Lead)
When darkness tries to cover my way,
Your word becomes the lamp to my feet.
Though enemies rise and troubles surround me,
I will stand firm, my heart will believe.
One thing I seek, one thing I desire,
To dwell in Your presence all my days.
You hide me safely under Your shadow,
And fill my mouth with songs of praise.

VERSE 2 (Female Lead)
I lift my eyes unto the mountains,
Where does my help come from today?
My help comes from the Lord Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth always.
You hold my hand through every season,
You guard my coming and my going.
Through every tear and every victory,
Your faithful love keeps overflowing.

You are my light, my salvation, Lord, I will not fear, no!

We lift Your name forever, forever You reign!

VERSE 3 (Male Lead)
Though nations shake and oceans thunder,
Though storms arise and mountains fall,
There is a river flowing with mercy,
Your presence gives us strength through all.
You are our refuge and our fortress,
An ever-present help in need.
We will be still and know Your power,
For You alone are King indeed.
---
VERSE 4 (Female Lead)
When I walk through valleys of uncertainty,
Your gentle voice is calling me.
You turn my fear into a testimony,
Your grace rewrites my destiny.
Morning by morning, Your love surrounds me,
Even the night _shines_ bright with hope.
You are the anchor of my future,
In every season You uphold.
---
VERSE 5 (Male & Female Duet)
Together we sing of Your goodness,
Together we stand in Your grace.
From every tribe and every nation,
We gather here to seek Your face.
Our hearts are fixed, our eyes are lifted,
Your promises will never fail.
Through every age Your name is holy,
Our God forever will prevail.
