Psalms 27:5
3 Though an army encamps around me, my heart will not fear; though a war breaks out against me, I will keep my trust.
4 One thing I have asked of the LORD; this is what I desire: to dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the LORD and seek Him in His temple.
For in the day of trouble He will hide me in His shelter; He will conceal me under the cover of His tent; He will set me high upon a rock.
6 Then my head will be held high above my enemies around me. At His tabernacle I will offer sacrifices with shouts of joy; I will sing and make music to the LORD.
7 Hear, O LORD, my voice when I call; be merciful and answer me.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
