As me and my fellow group members read Psalm 27 (KJV) , we have seen alot of themes, symbols, and deeper meaning within the psalm itself. The poem mainly displays one message: The Lord will protect you through whatever. Look for the Lord for protection. The Lord is our light, he will guide us through the darkness. Be patient with the Lord as to your blessings will be received.
In Verse 1, where it says "...whom shall I fear", it defines fear as in respect, not fear as in to be afraid. Also in Verse 1, where it says"The Lord is is my light...", it is saying that the Lord is one's guidance. Verse 5 talks about when one is in danger, he will protect them, not necessarily hide them physically.
