How I love Thy law, O Lord

Daily joy its truths afford;

In its constant light I go,

Wise to conquer every foe.

 

Thy commandments in my heart

Truest wisdom can impart;

To mine eyes Thy precepts show

Wisdom more than sages know.

 

While my heart Thy word obeys,

I am kept from evil ways;

From Thy law, with Thee to guide,

I have never turned aside.

 

Sweeter are Thy words to me

Than all other good can be;

Safe I walk, Thy truth my light

Hating falsehood, loving right.
