[verse 170] O let my supplication,
before thee be preferr'd:
And grant me thy salvation,
according to thy word.
[verse 171] And then my lips shall be prepar'd
to utter thankful praise,
When unto me thou hast declar'd,
and taught me all thy ways.
[verse 172] My tongue shall utter and express
the praises of thy word:
For thy commands are right'ousness,
ev'n all of them, O Lord,
[verse 173] Then let thy helping hand prevail,
when perils do oppose:
For leaving other helps that fail,
thy precepts I have chose.
[verse 174] And I, O Lord, have long'd to see
thy saving health and might:
And, Lord, thy law affecteth me
with very great delight.
[verse 175] O let my soul in safety live,
and it shall give thee praise:
And unto me thy judgements give,
to help me all my days.
[verse 176] I went astray like wandring sheep,
O seek thy servant yet:
For thy commandements to keep
I do not quite forget.
