With my whole heart I've sought thy face:

O let me never stray

From thy commands, O God of grace,

Nor tread the sinner's way.

Thy word I've hid within my heart

To keep my conscience clean,

And be an everlasting guard

From every rising sin.

I'm a companion of the saints

Who fear and love the Lord;

My sorrows rise, my nature faints,

When men transgress thy word.

While sinners do thy gospel wrong

My spirit stands in awe;

My soul abhors a lying tongue,

But loves thy righteous law.

My heart with sacred rev'rence hears

The threat'nings of thy word;

My flesh with holy trembling fears

The judgments of the Lord.

My God, I long, I hope, I wait,

For thy salvation still;

While thy whole law is my delight,

And I obey thy will.
