O how I love thy holy Law
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P119e (1766) Topics: Delight in Law of God Lyrics: 1 O how I love thy holy Law;
'Tis daily my Delight;
And thence my Meditations draw
Divine Advice by Night.
2 My waking Eyes prevent the Day
To meditate thy Word;
My Soul with Longing melts away
To hear thy Gospel, Lord.
3 How doth thy Word my Heart engage?
How well employ my Tongue?
And in my tiresome Pilgrimage
Yields me a heav'nly Song.
4 Am I a Stranger, or at Home;
'Tis my perpetual Feast;
Not Honey dropping from the Comb
So much allures the Taste.
5 No Treasures so enrich the Mind;
Nor shall thy Word be sold
For Loads of Silver well refin'd,
Nor Heaps of choicest Gold.
6 When Nature sinks, and Spirits droop,
Thy Promises of Grace
Are Pillars to support my Hope,
And there I write thy Praise. Scripture: Psalm 119:13 Languages: English
O how I love thy holy Law
With my whole Heart I've sought thy Face
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P119m (1766) Topics: Delight in Law of God Lyrics: 1 With my whole Heart I've sought thy Face,
O let me never stray
From thy Commands, O GOD of Grace,
Nor tread the Sinners Way.
2 Thy Word I've hid within my Heart,
To keep my Conscience clean,
And be an everlasting Guard
From ev'ry rising Sin.
3 I'm a Companion of the Saints,
Who fear and Love the Lord;
My Sorrows rise, my Nature faints,
When Men transgress thy Word.
4 While Sinners do thy Gospel wrong
My Spirit stands in Awe;
My Soul abhors a lying Tongue,
But loves thy righteous Law.
5 My Heart with sacred Rev'rence hears
The Threa'tnings of thy Word;
My Flesh with holy Trembling fears
The Judgments of the Lord.
6 My GOD, I long, I hope, I wait,
For thy Salvation still;
While thy whole Law is my Delight,
And I obey thy Will.
Scripture: Psalm 119:53 Languages: English

Delight in the Law of the Lord
Thy law is perfect, Lord of light
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #206 (1886) Topics: Worship Law of God Lyrics: 1 Thy law is perfect, Lord of light,
Thy testimonies sure;
The statutes of thy realm are right,
And thy commandments pure.
2 Let these, O God, my soul convert,
And make thy servant wise;
Let these be gladness to my heart,
The dayspring to mine eyes.
3 So may the words my lips express,
The thoughts that throng my mind,
O Lord, my strength and righteousness,
With thee acceptance find.

And thy deliverance send;
My soul for thy salvation faints,
When will my troubles end!
2 Yet I have found 'tis good for me
To bear my Father's rod;
Afflictions make me learn thy law,
And live upon my God.
3 This is the comfort I enjoy
When new distress begins:
I read thy word, I run thy way,
And hate my former sins.
4 Had not thy word been my delight
When earthly joys were fled,
My soul, opprest with sorrow's weight,
Had sunk amongst the dead.
5 I know thy judgments, Lord, are right,
Though they may seem severe;
The sharpest sufferings I endure,
Flow from thy faithful care.
6 Before I knew thy chastening rod,
My feet were apt to stray;
But now I learn to keep thy word,
Nor wander from thy way. Scripture: Psalm 119:67 Languages: English
