5 | Psalm 5 | CM | |
LORD, in the morning Thou shalt hear My voice ascending high; To Thee will I direct my prayer, To Thee lift up mine eye . . . |
|||
2 | Up to the place where Christ is gone, My advocate on high, Presenting at the Father’s throne, Each song, and every sigh. |
||
3 | O holy Lord, before Whose sight No evil ways shall stand, Who has in sinners no delight, Nor place at Thy right hand . . . |
||
4 | To this Thy house will I resort, To taste Thy mercies here; I’ll pray within Thy holy court, And worship and revere. |
||
5 | O may Thy Spirit guide my feet In ways of righteousness; Make every path of duty straight And plain before my face. |
||
6 | All they that love and trust Thy name Shall see their hopes fulfilled; For Thou, O Lord, wilt compass them With favour as a shield. |
||
Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 |
