Thy Word sheds light upon my path; A shining light, it guides my feet; Thy righteous judgments to observe My solemn vow I now repeat. In my distress I plead with Thee, Send help according to Thy Word; Accept my sacrifice of praise And make me know Thy judgments, Lord. In danger oft and nigh to death, Thy law remembered is my aid; The wicked seek my overthrow, Yet from Thy truth I have not strayed. Thy precepts are my heritage, For daily they my heart rejoice; To keep Thy statutes faithfully Shall ever be my willing choice.
