Breathing after Holiness. Ps. 119. 5, 29-37, 133
I. Watts 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.
