to keep Your Word,
so I won’t be ashamed
when I look at my life
in light of Your commands.
Sincerely, I will praise You
as I learn more of Your
righteous rules.
Don’t ever leave me, LORD,
for I want to obey You,
but, oh! How can anyone
keep Your ways – purely
without fault – except
by discerning Your Word?
With all my heart, I seek You!
Don’t let me stray away!
Deep inside me,
I will hide Your words,
so I’ll know what to do.
Blessed LORD, teach me!
You Are To Be praised
and blessed.
Psalm 119:5-12
