How Shall the Young Direct Their Way?
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 26 hymnals Topics: Instruction Lyrics: 1 How shall the young direct their way?
What light shall be their perfect guide?
Thy word, O LORD, will safely lead,
if in its wisdom they confide.
2 Sincerely I have sought thee, Lord,
O let me not from Thee depart;
to know Thy will and keep from sin
Thy word I cherish in my heart.
3 O blessed LORD, teach me Thy law,
Thy righteous judgments I declare;
Thy testimonies make me glad,
for they are wealth beyond compare.
4 Upon Thy precepts and Thy ways
my heart will meditate with awe;
Thy word shall be my chief delight,
and I will not forget Thy law. Scripture: Psalm 119:9-16 Used With Tune: MARYTON Text Sources: The Psalter, 1912, vv 9-16
How Shall the Young Direct Their Way?
All Who, with Heart Confiding
Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 12 hymnals Topics: Instruction Lyrics: 1 All who, with heart confiding,
depend on GOD alone,
like Zion's city abiding,
shall ne'er be overthrown.
Like Zion's city, bounded
by guarding mountains broad,
His people are surrounded
forever by their GOD.
2 No scepter of oppression
shall hold unbroken sway,
lest unto base transgression
the righteous turn away.
Thy favor be imparted
to godly men, O LORD;
bless all that are pure-hearted,
the good with good reward.
3 The men who falsehood cherish,
forsaking truth and right,
with wicked ones shall perish,
GOD will their sin requite.
From sin Thy saints defending,
their joy, O LORD, increase
with mercy never ending
and everlasting peace. Scripture: Psalm 125 Used With Tune: AURELIA Text Sources: The Psalter, 1912

of Thy most holy Word.

do Thy commandments give;

God of the morning, at whose voice
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 262 hymnals Topics: Children instructed; Instruction in piety; Piety instructions therein Lyrics:
God of the morning! at whose voice
The cheerful sun makes haste to rise,
And like a giant doth rejoice
To run his journey through the skies.
From the fair chambers of the east
The circuit of his race begins,
And, without weariness or rest,
Round the whole earth he flies and shines.
O like the sun may I fulfil
Th' appointed duties of the day,
With ready mind and active will
March on and keep my heav'nly way.
[But I shall rove and lose the race,
If God, my sun, should disappear,
And leave me in this world's wild maze,
To follow every wand'ring star.
Lord, thy commands are clean and pure,
Enlight'ning our beclouded eyes;
Thy threat'nings just, thy promise sure,
Thy gospel makes the simple wise.]
Give me thy counsel for my guide,
And then receive me to thy bliss;
All my desires and hopes beside
Are faint and cold compared with this.
