Lord, I have made Thy Word my choice,

My lasting heritage;

There shall my noblest pow’rs rejoice,

My warmest thoughts engage.

I’ll read the histories of Thy love,

And keep Thy laws in sight;

While through Thy promises I rove,

With ever fresh delight.

’Tis a broad land of wealth unknown,

Where springs of life arise,

Seeds of immortal bliss are sown,

And hidden glory lies.

My faith and love and every grace
Fall far below Thy Word,
For perfect truth and righteousness
Dwell only with the Lord. —Isaac Watts
