Hymnal: Psalms, carefully suited to the Christian worship in the United States of America #250 (1791) Scripture: Psalm 119:9 First Line: Lord, I esteem thy judgments right Lyrics: 1 Lord, I esteem thy judgments right,
And all thy statutes just;
Thence I maintain a constant fight
With evry flatt'ring lust.
2 Thy precepts often I survey:
I keep thy law in sight,
Through all the bus'ness of the day,
To form my actions right.
3 My heart in midnight silence cries,
"How sweet thy comforts be!"
My thoughts in holy wonder rise,
And bring their thanks to thee.
4 And when my spirit drinks her fill,
At some good word of thine,
Not mighty men that share the spoil,
Have joys compar'd to mine. Languages: English
