Text: | Thy Servant, Blessed by Thee, Shall Live |
Tune: | ARLINGTON |
Composer: | Thomas Arne |
1 Thy servant, blessed by Thee, shall live
and keep Thy word with awe;
Lord, open Thou mine eyes to see
the wonders of Thy law.
2 A pilgrim in the earth am I,
Thy will to me reveal;
to know Thy truth my spirit yearns,
consumed with ardent zeal.
3 Thou dost rebuke the proud, O Lord,
who hate Thy holy Name;
but since I keep Thy righteous law,
deliver me from shame.
4 I on Thy statutes meditate,
though evil men deride;
Thy faithful word is my delight,
my counselor and guide.
