Thy Word Remember, O My God!
Richard Mant (1824) • English

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.
