HOW shall the young direct their way? What light shall be their perfect guide? Thy Word, O Lord, will safely lead, If in its wisdom they confide.
Sincerely I have sought Thee, Lord, O let me not from Thee depart; To know Thy will and keep from sin, Thy Word I cherish in my heart.
O blessèd Lord, teach me Thy law, Thy righteous judgements I declare; Thy testimonies make me glad, For they are wealth beyond compare.
Upon Thy precepts and Thy ways My heart will meditate with awe; Thy Word shall be my chief delight, And I will not forget Thy law.
The Psalter, 1912
