Thou, Who Didst Make and Fashion Me

Verse 1

Thou, who didst make and fashion me, O make me wise, Thy law to learn; then they that fear Thee shall be glad when they my hope in God discern.

Verse 2

Thou, LORD, art just in all Thy ways, and faithful when Thou chast'nest me; I pray Thee, let Thy promised grace Thy servant's help and comfort be.

Verse 3

Show mercy, Lord, that I may live, for in Thy law is all my joy; while those who wrong me are rebuked, Thy precepts shall my thought employ.

Verse 4

Let those that fear Thee turn to me, Thy truth to them will I proclaim; instruct my heart to keep Thy law, that I may not be put to shame.
