Psalm 119 (Ayin)

To the tune of Come Thou Fount

I’ve judged rightly and with justice;
Leave me not lest foes oppress.
Guarantee good for Your servant,
Lest the proud cause me distress.
Your just promise, Your salvation,
My eyes, failing, long to see.
With Your servant deal in mercy,
And Your statutes teach to me.

I’m Your servant; give me insight
That Your statutes I may know.
Lord, it is Your time for action,
For Your law they overthrow.
But I love all Your commandments
More than gold, the finest gold.
So Your precepts I deem upright,
All that’s false in hatred hold.
