O how I love thy holy law!
1
O how I love thy holy law!'T is daily my delight;And thence my meditations drawDivine advice by night.
2
How doth thy word my heart engage!How well employ my tongue!And in my tiresome pilgrimageYields me a heavenly song.
3
No treasures so enrich the mind,Nor shall thy word be sold,For loads of silver well-refined,Nor heaps of choicest gold.
4
When all the powers of nature droop,Thy promises of graceAre pillars to support the hopeOf my abiding-place.
