PSALM 119:1-8
METER: LMD (88 88 D)
SUGGESTED TUNE: HE LEADETH ME
1. Hap-py are those who do no wrong,
Who walk in the law of the Lord.
Hap-py they who do his com-mands,
Who o-bey him with all their hearts.
They nev-er do that which is wrong,
But ev-er walk in Yah-weh's ways.
Lord, you have giv-en us your laws
And told us to hold fast to them.
2. O may I al-ways faith-ful be
And al-ways your in-struc-tions keep.
If I pay heed to all your laws,
I nev-er will be put to shame.
As I your right-eous judg-ments learn,
I will praise you with a pure heart.
I al-ways will o-bey your laws;
O Lord, do not a-ban-don me!
