Teach me, Lord, the way of your decrees,
that I may follow it to the end.
Give me understanding so that I may keep your law
and obey it with all my heart.
Direct me in the path of your commands,
for there I find delight.
Turn my heart toward your statutes
and not toward selfish gain.
Turn my eyes away from worthless things;
preserve my life according to your word.
Fulfill your promise(s) to me, your servant,
so that you may be feared.
Take away the disgrace I dread,
for your laws are good.
How I long for your precepts!
In your righteousness, preserve my life.
In the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ, my Saviour and Redeemer. Amen.
