119:41-48a. Let Thy Sweet Mercies Also Come

1 Let Thy sweet mercies also come
and visit me, O LORD;
Ev'n Thy benign salvation,
according to Thy Word.

2 So shall I have wherewith I may
give him an answer just,
Who spitefully reproached me;
for in Thy Word I trust.

3 The Word of truth out of my mouth
take Thou not utterly;
For on Thy judgments righteous
my hope doth still rely.

4 So shall I keep for evermore
Thy law continually.
And, saith that I Thy precepts seek,
I'll walk at liberty.

5 I'll speak Thy Word to kings, and I
with shame shall not be moved;
And will delight myself always
in Thy laws, which I loved.

6 To Thy commandments, which I loved,
my hands lift up I will;
And I will also meditate
upon Thy statutes still.
