Psalm 119. v. 41, to 48· (6. PART.)

The great freedom of the Godly.

LORD, let thy mercies come to me, The saving health that flows from thee, according to thy promise, Lord; So shall I have to answer those That are my most reproachfull foes, for I have trusted in thy word. And take not, Lord, the word of truth, Take it not quite out of my mouth, for in thy judgments do I hope: So shall I keep and not, and not give or'e To keep thy Statutes evermore, for that is all my aim and scope.
And I will walk at liberty, Because I seek unfeignedly the precepts which thou hast proclaim'd:

Page 624

Thy Testimonies are such things, That I will mention them to Kings, and never be thereof asham'd: And I will much delight my mind In thy Commandements enjoyn'd, which I have loved to relate: My hands likewise I will direct To thy commands, which I affect, and in thy Statutes meditate.
