Hymn XI. Psal. 25.5, 7
To the Tune of Psal. 67.
LORD lead me in thy Truth, And teach me in thy Way; For thou my God and Saviour art, On thee I wait all day. My youthful sins and faults, O keep not on record; In mercy, for thy goodness sake, Remember me, O Lord.
8, 10. The Lord is good and just, And therefore takes delight To teach poor sinners in his way, That they may walk aright. For all the ways of God Are Mercy, Truth and Grace, To them that keep his Covenant, And his Commands embrace.
12, 13. What man doth fear the Lord, And dread the paths of sin, The Lord himself shall choose his way, And guide his steps therein. Possessed with quiet thoughts, His Soul shall dwell at ease; His Happy Off-spring shall possess The promised Land of Peace.
