C. M.
O, how I love thy law.
Psalm 119:97.
O how I love thy holy law!
’Tis daily my delight;
And thence my meditations draw
Divine advice by night.
2 I wake before the dawn of day,
To meditate thy word;
My soul with longing melts away,
To bear thy gospel, Lord.
3 How doth thy word my heart engage,
How well employ my tongue;
And in my tiresome pilgrimage,
Yields me a heavenly song.
4 When nature sinks, and spirits droop,
Thy promises of grace
Are pillars to support my hope,
And there I write thy praise.
Watts.
