Psalms of Grace ‎#119:49-56a

119:49-56a. Thy Word Remember, O My God!

1 Thy Word remember, O my God!
Taught by that Word, beneath the load
Of grief on Thee my hopes repose,
And thence my life, my solace grows.

2 What though the proud my course deride,
I turn not from Thy law aside.
In days of old Thy wonders wrought
Speak comfort to my mindful thought.

3 With horror filled, I see Thy foes
Perverse Thy laws, great God, oppose.
But I, a wandering pilgrim here,
My dwelling with Thy statutes cheer.

4 My songs by day: and still delight
With thoughts of Thee my hours of night.
Thy Words my serious care employ.
My study they, and they my joy.
