Mercy and Judgment are My Song
{ Mercy and Judgment are My Song OLD HUNDRED-Louis Bourgeois Mercy and Judgment are My Song } Mercy and judgment are my song; And, since they both to thee belong, My gracious God! my righteous King! To thee my songs and vows I bring. I will not set mine eyes to wrong, Reproach shall not to me belong; The faithful in my sight shall be; The true shall dwell in peace with me. Let wisdom all my actions guide, And let my God with me reside: No wicked thing shall dwell with me, Which may provoke thy jealousy. Deceivers will I turn away, Nor in my house shall liars stay; The wicked will I thus reward, And clear the city of the Lord. O Lord! to thee my praise I bring, Of mercy and of judgment sing; In wisdom will I walk at home. When wilt thou to my dwelling come? |
