119:137-144b | Psalms of Grace#119:145-152a | 119:145-152b |
Text: | With My Whole Heart |
1 With my whole heart I cried, LORD, hear;
I will Your Word obey.
I cried to Thee; save me, and I
will keep Your laws always.
2 I of the morning did prevent
the dawning, and did cry:
For all mine expectation
did on Your Word rely.
3 Mine eyes did happily prevent
the watches of the night,
That in Your Word with careful mind
then meditate I might.
4 After Your loving-kindness hear
my voice, that calls on Thee:
According to Your judgment, LORD,
revive and quicken me.
5 Who follow mischief they draw nigh;
they from Your law are far:
But You are near, LORD; most firm truth
all Your commandments are.
6 As for Your testimonies all,
of old this have I tried,
That You have surely founded them
forever to abide.
