O That The Lord Would Guide My Ways
O that the Lord would guide my ways To
1.O that the Lord would guide my ways
To keep His statutes still!
O that my God would grant me grace
To know and do His will!
2.O send Thy Spirit down to write
Thy law upon my heart!
Nor let my tongue indulge deceit,
Nor act the liar's part.
3.From vanity turn off mine eyes;
Let no corrupt design,
Nor covetous desires arise
Within this soul of mine.
4.Order my footsteps by Thy Word,
And make my heart sincere;
Let sin have no dominion, Lord,
But keep my conscience clear.
5.Assist my soul, too apt to stray,
A stricter watch to keep;
And should I e'er forget Thy way,
Restore Thy wand'ring sheep.
