Tune: Corpus Christi

('Jesus, in thy dear Sacrament')

Psalm 119 v.33-38

********

Teach me, O Lord, the way of your

Statutes, and I for sure

Shall keep them unto the end, give

Me grace, so I shall live

 

Give me understanding, and I

Shall keep your law, comply

With it, I shall with my whole heart

Observe it every part

 

Make me to go in the path here

of your commndments clear

For therein do I delight free

They are pleasant to me

 

Incline my heart, testimonies

Of yours, my soul agrees

That they are good, and turn me not

To a covetous lot

 

Establish your word unto me

I who your servant be

I am devoted to your fear

Worship you, you revere

  • Comment from author about the poem: The hymn in the video is more of an Anglo-Catholic hymn, not that well known - not many clips of it. Laws, statutes, testimonies, decrees, etc, are mainly the same thing, or all similar. This is in 8.6.8.6. format.
