Your law

"The laws of the Lord are true
Each one is fair
They are more desirable 
Than gold,
Even the finest gold"

Your law is gold
It is diamonds
It is pearls
It is the finest stone

It is more precious 
Than rubies 
Or emeralds
Or pure silver

Your law
Guides my soul
It puts order
In a world of
Moral chaos

It gives boundaries
Against the wilderness
With its ferocious beasts
And unrelenting storms

It is a beacon 
In the midst of 
A dark stormy sea

It is all I could ever hope 
To learn
It is the very heart of theology

It is the compass 
Of my life
It is the guard rail
Of my heart

I delight in your law
O Lord
I think on it 
All the time
Day and night

Guard your law
In my heart
Keep it on my mind
That I may celebrate 
Your goodness
And grace
That I may 
Abound in your joy

That I may 
Find the narrow path
That leads to life
Eternal and abundant

Your law is perfection
