Psalm 27:4-6
New Living Translation
4 The one thing I ask of the Lord—
the thing I seek most—
is to live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life,
delighting in the Lord’s perfections
and meditating in his Temple.
5 For he will conceal me there when troubles come;
he will hide me in his sanctuary.
He will place me out of reach on a high rock.
6 Then I will hold my head high
above my enemies who surround me.
At his sanctuary I will offer sacrifices with shouts of joy,
singing and praising the Lord with music.
Psalm 27:4-6

all the days of my life,(B)
to gaze on the beauty of the Lord
and to seek him in his temple.
5 For in the day of trouble(C)
he will keep me safe(D) in his dwelling;
he will hide me(E) in the shelter of his sacred tent
and set me high upon a rock.(F)
