O how I love thy holy law!

Hymnal: Dr. Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David #264 (1790) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Psalm 119:13 Lyrics: 1 O how I love thy holy law! 'Tis daily my delight: And thence my meditations draw Divine advice by night. 2 My waking eyes prevent the day To meditate thy word: My soul with longing melts away To hear thy gospel, Lord. 3 How doth thy word my heart engage! How well employ my tongue! And in my tiresome pilgrimage Yields me a heav'nly song. 4 Am I a stranger, or at home, 'Tis my perpetual feast; Not honey dropping from the comb So much allures the taste. 5 No treasures so enrich the mind; Nor shall thy word be sold For loads of silver well refin'd, Nor heaps of choicest gold. 6 When nature sinks, and spirits droop, Thy promises of grace Are pillars to support my hope, And there I write thy praise.

I love the volume of thy word

Author: Watts Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #10 (1873) 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.
