18 Open the eyes of my dark mind, By thy revealing light; That thy Law's wondrous mysteries, May be as in my sight.
19 I am a stranger in this earth, And need a certain guide; Thy true and just commandments Let nothing from me hide.

20 The daily longings of my soul Do make it pant and break; That thy just judgments I may know, And of their light partake.
21 Proud wicked men thou hast rebuked; They justly cursed are, Who from thy true and righteous Laws, Maliciously do err.
