Tune: Gwalchmai
('King of glory, King of peace')
Psalm 119 v.97-104
********
How I love your law, it be
To me pure, free
My meditation all day
True is your way
O Lord, through your commands you
Guide me anew
I wiser than enemies
E'er they with me
I have more understanding
Here in each thing
Than all my teachers, for your
Laws they are sure
My meditation, and I
Keep your laws nigh
I understand more then they
Who agéd be
It is so because I keep
Your ways, your sheep
Am I, and I have refrained
Myself, disdained
From every evil way, so
May your word know
I have not departed, see
You have taught me
How sweet your words to my taste
I do make haste
To keep them diligently
For they here be
Sweeter than honey to me
Your precepts daily
Give me understanding, I
To you ally
