How I love Thy law, O Lord!
Daily joy its truths af­ford;
In its con­stant light I go,
Wise to con­quer every foe.

Thy com­mand­ments in my heart,
Truest wis­dom can impart;
To my eyes Thy pre­cepts show
Wisdom more than sag­es know.

While my heart Thy Word obeys,
I am kept from ev­il ways;
From Thy law, with Thee to guide,
I have ne­ver turned aside.

Sweeter are Thy words to me
Than all oth­er good can be;
Safe I walk, Thy truth my light,
Hating false­hood, lov­ing right.
