How Can I, Lord, Keep My Way Pure?

How can I

Lord

keep my way pure?

To Your Word I must be true.

So I seek You with my whole heart;

Do not let me stray from You.

Your Word’s hid­den in my heart

Lord

That I might not go as­tray.

Praise to You

O Lord

my Fa­ther;

Teach me Your de­crees each day.

With my lips I re­count glad­ly

All the laws You’ve giv’n to man.

I re­joice in all Your sta­tutes

As in wealth too vast to scan.

Meditating on Your pre­cepts

I con­si­der all Your ways.

I de­light in Your de­crees

Lord;

I will nev­er turn away.
