Tune: Mannheim
('Lead us heavenly Father, lead us')
Psalm 119 v.17-24
********
Let your mercies come to me LORD
E'en according to your word
Your salvation residing here
Us trusting in godly fear
So shall I answer those who do
Reproach me, and I you view
Take not your word of truth from me
Deny it not completely
Unto me, for I have hoped here
In your judgements, they are near
So shall I keep you law ever
Continual, with endeavour
And I will at liberty walk
Seek your precepts, of them talk
And of your testimonies sure
I will speak before kings, for
I will not of them be ashamed
I your promises here claimed
I will in your commands delight
They be pleasant to my sight
I them love, and will them follow
So I your good way shall know
I will lift m hands in praise here
Meditate on your words clear
