4. Shew me thy ways, O Lord;thy paths, O teach thou me:
5. And do thou lead me in thy truth,therein my teacher be:For thou art God that dostto me salvation send,And I upon thee all the dayexpecting do attend.
6. Thy tender mercies, Lord,I pray thee to remember,And loving-kindnesses; for theyhave been of old for ever.
7. My sins and faults of youthdo thou, O Lord, forget:After thy mercy think on me,and for thy goodness great.
8. God good and upright is:the way he'll sinners show.
9. The meek in judgment he will guide,and make his path to know.
10. The whole paths of the Lordare truth and mercy sure,To those that do his cov'nant keep,and testimonies pure.
11. Now, for thine own name's sake,O Lord, I thee entreatTo pardon mine iniquity;for it is very great.
