Psalm 119. v. 169, to 172. (22. PART.)
The work of Grace permanent.
UNto the Lord let my cry come,and near approach to thee:Of understanding give me some,as with thy words agree.My humble supplicationbefore thee let appear;For thou art my salvation,my God, my Lord, most dear.
Then shall my lips applaud thy namein holy Songs of praise:And to thy Statutes my heart framewhen I am taught thy ways.My tongue shall thy true word declare,thy righteousness unfold:Thy Commandments that are so rare,shall to the Saints be told.
descriptionPage 640
O help me, Lord, by thy right handbecause I trust in thee,Thy chosen precepts shall commandme, with humility.For thy salvation, Lord, I sought,and longed very much:Thy laws delight me wisedom taught,I never pains did grutch.
Long live my soul the Lord to praise,his Name to glorifie,And by thy judgments guide my waysto all eternity.Lord, like a sheep thy servant stray'd,in pity Lord seek me,For of thy law I'm not affraid,forgot ne're let me be.
