My feet too often slip;
Yet since I’ve not forgot thy way,
Restore thy wandering sheep.

’Tis a delightful road;
Nor let my head, or heart, or hands,
Offend against my God.

Let mercy plead my cause;
Tho’ I have sinn’d against thy grace,

Which I so justly fear;
Uphold my life, uphold my hopes,
Nor let my shame appear.

3 Be thou a surety, Lord, for me,
Nor let the proud oppress;
But make thy waiting servant see
The shinings of thy face.

My heart within me cries,
“When will the Lord his truth fulfil,
“And make my comforts rise?”

And shew thy grace the same
As thou art ever wont t’ afford

To keep my conscience clean,
And be an everlasting guard
From every rising sin.

Who fear and love the Lord;
My sorrows rise, my nature faints,
When men transgress thy word.

My spirit stands in awe;
My soul abhors a lying tongue,
But loves thy righteous law.

5 My heart with sacred reverence hears
The threatenings of thy word: 
My flesh with holy trembling fears
The judgments of the Lord.

6 My God, I long, I hope, I wait
For thy salvation still;
While thy whole law is my delight,
And I obey thy will.

And thy deliverance send;
My soul for thy salvation faints,
When will my troubles end?

To bear my Father’s rod;
Afflictions make me learn thy law,
And live upon my God.

3 This is the comfort I enjoy
When new distress begins,
I read thy word, I run thy way,
And hate my former sins.

Ver. 92.
4 Had not thy word been my delight
When earthly joys were fled,
My soul opprest with sorrow’s weight
Had sunk amongst the dead.
