Soon as I know thy way,
My heart makes haste t’ obey thy word,

And glory in my choice:

I set before my eyes;
Thence I derive my daily strength,
And there my comfort lies.

And thro’ the dangers of the night,
A lamp to lead our way.

And meditate thy word,
Grow wiser than their teachers are,
And better know the Lord.

I hate the sinner’s road;
I hate my own vain thoughts that rise,
But love thy law, my God.

The earth maintains her place;
And these thy servants night and day
Thy skill and power express!

Have lessons more divine;
Not earth stands firmer than thy word,
Nor stars so nobly shine.]

And thence my meditations draw
Divine advice by night.
