This Alone
Seeking Sanctuary: Embracing Divine Presence in 'This Alone'
Lyrics
One thing I ask, this alone I seek,
Expressing a singular desire or request.
to dwell in the house of the Lord all my days.
Desiring a continuous presence in the Lord's house throughout life.
For one day within Your temple heals ev'ry day alone.
Stating that spending one day in God's temple brings healing every day in isolation.
O Lord, bring me to Your dwelling.
Requesting the Lord to lead the speaker to His dwelling.
Hear, O Lord, the sound of my calling.
Calling upon the Lord, seeking His attention.
Hear, O Lord, and show me your way.
Requesting the Lord to reveal His way.
One thing I ask, this alone I seek,
Reiteration of the singular request and desire.
to dwell in the house of the Lord all my days.
Expressing the longing to abide in God's house for the entirety of life.
For one day within Your temple heals ev'ry day alone.
Affirming that a day in God's temple brings healing each day spent alone.
O Lord, bring me to Your dwelling.
Repeating the plea for the Lord to guide the speaker to His dwelling.
The Lord is my light and hope of salvation.
Declaring the Lord as the source of light and the hope of salvation.
The Lord is my refuge whom should I fear?
Expressing confidence in the Lord as a refuge, leading to the absence of fear.
One thing I ask, this alone I seek,
Restating the singular desire and request.
to dwell in the house of the Lord all my days.
Desiring a continuous residence in the Lord's house throughout life.
For one day within Your temple heals ev'ry day alone.
Affirming that spending one day in God's temple brings healing daily in solitude.
O Lord, bring me to Your dwelling.
Reiterating the plea for the Lord to lead the speaker to His dwelling.
