Remember Your Word unto me,
That has given me so much hope;
With insight that helps me to see,
And has enabled me to cope.

It’s comfort to my affliction,
That Your promise has given life;
Giving me a new direction,
In avoiding toils and strife.

The proud utterly deride me,
But I reject not of Your Law;
And keep honoring Your decree,
So that I don’t stumble and fall.

When I think of Your rules of old,
I take comfort in You O Lord;
Because as each day does unfold,
And to remain in one accord.

Hot indignation seizes me,
The wicked that forsake Your Law;
They are too blind and cannot see,
The scaring left by every flaw.

For Your statutes have been my songs,
In the house of my sojourning;
Keeping me right from making wrongs,
Till You call for my returning.

I remember Your name at night,
As Your blessings flow from Heaven;
I keep Your precepts in my sight,
For everything You have given.
