1. Do good to me and I will live; your servant will obey your word
Do good to me and I will live; your servant will obey your word. Open my eyes that I may see great wonders in your law, O Lord.
[Sing to the Lord 119:17-24]

2. do not hide your commands from me. Consumed with longing is my soul,
2. I am a stranger on the earth;
do not hide your commands from me.
Consumed with longing is my soul,
because your laws I yearn to see.

3. they’re cursed who from your precepts stray.
3. You have rebuked the insolent;
they’re cursed who from your precepts stray.
Remove from me contempt and scorn,
for all your statutes I obey.

4. I’ll meditate on your decree. Your statutes are my great delight,
4. Though rulers plot to harm my name,
I’ll meditate on your decree.
Your statutes are my great delight,
for they are counsellors to me.
