25 My life down to the dust declines, So that I scarcely live; According to thy holy Word, Do thou my strength revive.
26 I opened all my ways to thee, Thou didst to me attend; Teach me thy statutes, that I may My sinful ways amend.
26 I open'd all my ways to thee, Thou didst to me attend; Teach me thy statutes, that I may My sinful ways amend.
27 The way of thy divine Precepts Make me to understand; That all thy great and wondrous works May my discourse command.
28 My soul with grief and heaviness Doth melt and drop away; Be thou according to thy word, My strength, support, and stay.
