Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 12 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Your word sheds light upon my path;
a shining lamp, it guides my feet;
your righteous judgments to observe,
my solemn vow I now repeat.
2 Severe affliction, LORD, is mine;
send help according to your word.
Accept my sacrifice of praise
and make me know your judgments, LORD.
3 In constant danger is my life,
your righteous law I'll not forget.
I have not from your precepts strayed,
despite the snares the wicked set.
4 Your precepts are my heritage;
they daily make my heart rejoice.
To keep your statutes faithfully
shall ever be my willing choice. Topics: Law of God; Obedience; Pilgrimage and Guidance Scripture: Psalm 119:105-112 Used With Tune: CANONBURY Text Sources: The Psalter, 1912, alt.; mod.
