Lord, what is it like to have you for our dwelling place?
In your dwelling place, is there peace…always?
Is it a place where we are free from fear?
And when Satan sifts us like wheat,
will you protect us there?
When we dwell with you, O Lord,
are we responsible for strengthening
our sisters and our brothers?
Will you let us in?
