Psalm 119, Part 2: By what means shall a young man learn

Hymnal: Scottish Psalter and Paraphrases #P128 (1800) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: By what means shall a young man learn Lyrics: 9By what means shall a young man learn his way to purify? If he according to thy word thereto attentive be. 10Unfeignedly thee have I sought with all my soul and heart: O let me not from the right path of thy commands depart. 11Thy word I in my heart have hid, that I offend not thee. 12O Lord, thou ever blessed art, thy statutes teach thou me. 13The judgments of thy mouth each one my lips declared have: 14More joy thy testimonies’ way than riches all me gave. 15I will thy holy precepts make my meditation; And carefully I’ll have respect unto thy ways each one. 16Upon thy statutes my delight shall constantly be set: And, by thy grace, I never will thy holy word forget.
