Soon as I know Thy way, My heart makes haste to obey Thy Word, And suffers no delay. 2 I choose the path of heavenly truth And glory in my choice; Not all the riches of the earth Could make me so rejoice. 3 The testimonies of Thy grace I set before mine eyes; Thence I derive my daily strength, And there my comfort lies. 4 If I once wander from Thy path, I think upon my ways; Then turn my feet to Thy commands, And trust Thy pardoning grace. 5 Now I am Thine, forever Thine; O save Thy servant Lord! Thou art my shield, my hiding place, My hope is in Thy Word. Amen.
