The Psalter ‎#84

84. Gracious Guidance

1 I graciously will teach thee
The way that thou shalt go,
And with My eye upon thee
My counsel make thee know.
But be ye not unruly,
Or slow to understand,
Be not perverse, but willing
to heed My wise command.

2 The sorrows of the wicked
In number shall abound,
But those that trust Jehovah,
His mercy shall surround;
Then in the Lord be joyful,
In song lift up your voice;
Be glad in God, ye righteous,
Rejoice, ye saints, rejoice.
