Hymnal: The Psalter #271 (1912) First Line: Of mercy and of justice Lyrics: 1 Of mercy and of justice
My thankful song shall be;
O Lord, in joyful praises
My song shall rise to Thee.
Within my house I purpose
to walk in wisdom's way;
O Lord, I need Thy presence;
How long wilt Thou delay?
2 On what is base and evil
I will not set my heart;
Transgressor's ways abhorring
With them I take no part.
No froward man or evil
Shall my companion be;
I will not suffer slander
Or pride or treachery.
3 The faithful and the upright
Shall minister to me;
Thy lying and deceitful
My favor shall not see.
I will in daily judgment
All wickedness reward,
And cleanse from evil-doers
The city of the Lord.
