The law of the Lord is perfect,
Converting the soul;
The testimony of the Lord is sure,
Making wise the simple.
Converting the soul;
The testimony of the Lord is sure,
Making wise the simple.
More to be desired are they than gold.
Yea, than much fine gold:
Sweeter also than honey
And the honeycomb.
Yea, than much fine gold:
Sweeter also than honey
And the honeycomb.

The statutes of the Lord are right,
Rejoicing the heart:
The commandment of the Lord is pure,
Enlightening the eyes.
Rejoicing the heart:
The commandment of the Lord is pure,
Enlightening the eyes.

The fear of the Lord is clean,
Enduring forever;
The judgments of the Lord are true
And righteous altogether.
Enduring forever;
The judgments of the Lord are true
And righteous altogether.

Let the words of my mouth
And the meditation of my heart,
Be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord,
My strength, and my redeemer.
And the meditation of my heart,
Be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord,
My strength, and my redeemer.
Moreover by them is Thy servant warned:
Is Thy servant warned:
And in keeping of them there is
Great reward.
Is Thy servant warned:
And in keeping of them there is
Great reward.

Here's a new verse, which can be used as the first verse, taken from Ps 19:1-4:
The heavens declare the glory of God, proclaiming his works.
Day after day they pour forth speech; displaying knowledge by night.
There is no speech or language where their voice is not heard.
Their voice goes out to the ends of the earth.

Thank you for the lyrics of this song. The words are so powerful and satisfying.
It is taken from Psalm 19.

I knew this song a long time ago except for the Verse 4 with that ending part. Wish you had a way to hear it so I can see how it fits.
