The Lord has been my portion,
I promise to keep His Word;
For there is no distortion,
From the first time I had heard.

I entreated His favor,
Entirely with my heart;
He’s gracious as my Savior,
His promises I impart.

When I think about my way,
I turn my feet towards His Law;
So, I do not disobey,
That I will avoid a flaw.

I hasten and don’t delay,
In keeping His commandments;
So that I don’t go astray,
Results from my amusements.

Though the wicked ensnare me,
Your Law I do not forget;
They open my eyes to see,
And assist me not to fret.

At night I rise to praise you,
Because of His righteous rules;
For righteous judgments are true,
I’m unlike the other fools.

I’m a friend to all who fear,
Of those who keep His precepts;
Those who honor and revere,
And love the righteous concepts.

The earth is full of His love,
Full of His mercy and grace;
He teaches statutes thereof,
His affection does embrace.
