Oh that my God would grant me grace To know and do his will! 2 Oh send thy Spirit down to write Thy law upon my heart, Nor let my tongue indulge deceit, Nor act the liar's part. 3 From vanity turn off my eyes; Let no corrupt design Nor covetous desires arise Within this soul of mine. 4 Order my footsteps by thy word, And make my heart sincere; Let sin have no dominion, Lord, But keep my conscience clear. 5 My soul hath gone too far astray, My feet too often slip; Yet since I've not forgot thy way, Restore thy wandering sheep. 5 Make me to walk in thy commands, 'Tis a delightful road; Nor let my head, or heart, or hands, Offend against my God.
