O how I love thy law, it is my study

English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 119:73-78

Verse 1

O how love I thy law! it is my study all the day: it makes me wiser than my foes; for it doth with me stay. Than all my teachers now I have more understanding far; because my meditation still thy testimonies are.

Verse 2

In understanding I excel even those that aged be; because thy precepts to observe I have sought earnestly. My feet from each ill way I stayed, that I may keep thy word. I from thy judgments have not swerved; for thou hast taught me, Lord.

Verse 3

How sweet unto my taste, O Lord, are all thy words of truth! Yea, I do find them sweeter far than honey to my mouth. I through thy precepts, that are pure, do understanding get; I therefore every way that’s false with all my heart do hate.
