Track 8 on CDA68156 [2'34]

O do well unto thy servant:
that I may live, and keep thy word.
Open thou mine eyes:
that I may see the wondrous things of thy law.
I am a stranger upon earth:
O hide not thy commandments from me.
My soul breaketh out for the very fervent desire:
that it hath alway unto thy judgements.
Thou hast rebuked the proud:
and cursed are they that do err from thy commandments.
O turn from me shame and rebuke:
for I have kept thy testimonies.
Princes also did sit and speak against me:
but thy servant is occupied in thy statutes.
For thy testimonies are my delight:
and my counsellors.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost.
As it was in the beginning, is now,
and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
