Thou art my portion, Lord; Thy words I ever heed; With all my heart, Thy grace I seek, Thy promises I plead. I thought upon my ways, Thy testimonies learned; With earnest haste, and waiting not, To Thy commands I turned. While snares beset my path, Thy law I keep in view; At midnight I will give Thee praise For all Thy judgments true. All those who fear Thy Name Shall my companions be; Thy mercy fills the earth, O Lord; Thy statutes teach Thou me.
