THY woord, a lamp divine, fair star that leads the day,To paths obscure dooth shine; and guids to heavĕnli way.And I by sacred vow, a vow in heavĕns enrold,Stand bound, and rest resolv'd that woords iust rules to hold.Afflictions mee extreme bere doun: let promis'd grace,Revive me:' ô then, I pray, poor lips frank gifts embrace.
MY soule see still in hand stands prest away to fly;Such snares my life beset: yet still thy hests I ey;Can not thy Law forget. O teach me Lord thy ways:Thy woord since all my state, sole ioy my hart to raize;And thow my sovĕrain good; since soule entire I bendThy will to doo, in this lifes breth extreme to spend.
