I love the volume of thy word

Author: Watts Appears in 175 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 119 Lyrics: 1 I love the volume of thy word; What light and joy those leaves afford To souls benighted and distressed! Thy precepts guide my doubtful way, Thy fear forbids my feet to stray, Thy promise leads my heart to rest. 2 From the discoveries of thy law, Thy perfect rules of life I draw: These are my study and delight; Not honey so invites the taste, Nor gold that has the furnace passed, Appears so pleasing to the sight. 3 Who knows the errors of his thoughts? My God! forgive my secret faults, And from presumptuous sins restrain; Accept my poor attempts of praise, That I have read thy book of grace, And book of nature, not in vain.

Your Word is like an armory, where soldiers may repair, and find, for life's long battle day, all needful weapons there. 3 O may I love your precious Word, may I explore the mine, may I its fragrant flowers glean, may light upon me shine. O may I find my armor there, your Word my trusty sword; I'll learn to fight with every foe the battle of the Lord.

With my whole heart I'll raise my song

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 67 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 119 Lyrics: With my whole heart I've sought thy face: O let me never stray From thy commands, O God of grace, Nor tread the sinner's way. Thy word I've hid within my heart To keep my conscience clean, And be an everlasting guard From every rising sin. I'm a companion of the saints Who fear and love the Lord; My sorrows rise, my nature faints, When men transgress thy word. While sinners do thy gospel wrong My spirit stands in awe; My soul abhors a lying tongue, But loves thy righteous law. My heart with sacred rev'rence hears The threat'nings of thy word; My flesh with holy trembling fears The judgments of the Lord. My God, I long, I hope, I wait, For thy salvation still; While thy whole law is my delight, And I obey thy will.
