Hymn 23 - Oh, that the Lord Would Guide My Ways

Oh, that the Lord would guide my ways, To keep His statutes still!

Oh, that my God would grant me peace To know and do His will!

Order my footsteps by Thy Word, And make my heart sincere;

Let sin have no dominion, Lord, But keep my conscience clear.

Assist my soul, too apt to stray, A stricter watch to keep;

And, should I e’er forget Thy way, Restore Thy wand’ring sheep.

Make me to walk in Thy commands; ’Tis a delightful road;

Nor let my lips, or heart, or hands Offend against my God.
