How priceless is Your steadfast love,
O Lord, far more than life itself,
In the shadow of Your wings
Shall all who seek find refuge and help.

Chorus:
For in You, is the fountain of life
In Your light, we see light.
For in You, is the fountain of life
In Your light, do we see light.

Through the abundance of Your steadfast love
We come into Your holy place.
In the fear of You we worship
At Your throne of mercy and grace.

We feast on the abundance
Of Your House as on the richest food.
From the river of delights
We drink our fill of all that is good.
