149. Teach Me, O Lord, Your Way of Truth
1 Teach me, O Lord, your way of truth,
And from it I will not depart;
That I may steadfastly obey,
Give me an understanding heart.
2 In your commandments make me walk,
For in your law my joy shall be;
Give me a heart that loves your will,
From discontent and envy free.
3 Turn now my eyes from vanity,
And cause me in your ways to tread;
O let your servant prove your Word
And thus to godly fear be led.
4 Turn away reproach and fear;
Your righteous judgments I confess;
To know your precepts I desire;
Revive me in your righteousness.
