PSALM 119:33-40
METER: CMD (86 86 D)
SUGGESTED TUNE: CLEANSING FOUNTAIN
This is the meter for such hymns as "There Is a Fountain Filed with Blood."
1. Teach me the way of your laws, Lord;
I'll keep them to the end.
Give insight to me, that I may
Wholeheartedly obey.
Lead me in your commandments' path,
For in them I delight.
Incline my heart unto your word,
And not to my own gain.
2. Let me not look at vanities;
Give me life in your ways.
Confirm to me your promise sure,
For all those who fear you.
Turn back the reproach which I dread;
Your ord'nances are good.
Lo, for your precepts do I long;
In justice give me life.
