O That The Lord Would Guide My Ways

1. O that the Lord would guide my ways To keep His sta- tutes still! O that my God would grant me grace To know and do His will!

2. O send Thy Spi- rit down to write Thy law up- on my heart! Nor let my tongue in- dulge de- ceit, Nor act the li- ar's part.

3. From van- i- ty turn off mine eyes; Let no cor- rupt de- sign, Nor cov- et- ous de- sires a- rise With- in this soul of mine.

4. Or- der my foot- steps by Thy Word, And make my heart sin- cere; Let sin have no do- min- ion, Lord, But keep my con- science clear.

5. As- sist my soul, too apt to stray, A strict- er watch to keep; And should I e'er for- get Thy way, Re- store Thy wan- d'ring sheep.
