Light my darkness

He makes darkness His secret place (Psalm 18:11; LSV).

Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, “I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life” (John 8:12; NLT).

Jesus,
Light my darkness;

Yahweh,
Take my hand;

Spirit,
Fill my emptiness:

Make me
Your Promised Land.

We are the temple of the living God (2 Corinthians 6:16; NLT).
