The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear. The Lord is the strength of my life of whom shall I be afraid? One thing have I desired of the Lord, that I seek after that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in his temple.
Psalm 27:1-4
