Thy Word Remember, O My God!

Richard Mant (1824) • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 119:49-56

Verse 1

Thy Word remember, O my God! Taught by that Word, beneath the load Of grief on Thee my hopes repose, And thence my life, my solace grows.

Verse 2

What though the proud my course deride, I turn not from Thy law aside. In days of old Thy wonders wrought Speak comfort to my mindful thought.

Verse 3

With horror filled, I see Thy foes Perverse Thy laws, great God, oppose. But I, a wandering pilgrim here, My dwelling with Thy statutes cheer.

Verse 4

My songs by day: and still delight With thoughts of Thee my hours of night. Thy Words my serious care employ. My study they, and they my joy.
