C.M.
1
O that the Lord would guide my ways
To keep His statutes still!
O that my God would grant me grace
To know and do His will!
2
O send Thy Spirit down to write
Thy law upon my heart!
Nor let my tongue indulge deceit
Nor act the liar’s part.
3
From vanity turn off my eyes;
Let no corrupt design,
Nor covetous desires, arise
Within this soul of mine.
4
Order my footsteps by Thy Word,
And make my heart sincere;
Let sin have no dominion, Lord,
But keep my conscience clear.
5
Make me to walk in Thy commands;
’Tis a delightful road;
Nor let my head, or heart, or hands,
Offend against my God.
