Restore therfore my lyfe agayne, as thy promise is iust. [verse 26] My wayes when I acknowledged, with mercy thou didst heare: Here now eftsones, and me instruct, thy lawes to loue and feare.
[verse 27] Teache me once throughly for to know thy precepts and thy lore: Thy workes then will Imeditate, and lay them vp in store. [verse 28] My soule I fele so sore opprest: that it melteth for grief: According to thy word therfore, hast Lorde to sende relyef.
[verse 29] From lying and deceitfull lyppes, let thy grace me defend: And that I may learue thee to loue, thy holy law me send. [verse 30] The way of truth both straight & sure, I haue chosen and founde: I set thy iudgement me before, whiche kepe me safe and sound.
[verse 33] Since then (O Lord) I forced my selfe thy couenants to embrase: Let me therfore haue no rebuke, nor check in any case. [verse 32] Then will I runne with ioyfull cheare where thy worde doth me call: When thou hast set my hart at large. and rid me out of thrall.
