  *++Lyrics:|\\
O Lord, Thy perfect righteousness\\
Is in Thy judgments shown;\\
In Thy unchanging faithfulness\\
Thy truth Thou hast made known.\\
\\
Because Thy foes forget Thy law\\
My soul is greatly stirred;\\
Thy servant loves the purity\\
Of Thy most holy Word.\\
\\
Though I am humble and despised,\\
I strive Thy will to do;\\
Eternal is Thy righteousness,\\
And all Thy law is true.\\
\\
Delight amid distress and pain\\
Do Thy commandments give;\\
Thy Word is righteous evermore,\\
Teach me that I may live.\\

  *++Lyrics:|\\
As pants the hart for cooling streams,\\
When heated in the chase,\\
So longs my soul, O God, for thee,\\
And thy refreshing grace.\\
\\
For thee, my God, the living God,\\
My thirsty soul doth pine;\\
O when shall I behold thy face,\\
Thou Majesty divine!\\
\\
God of my strength, how long shall I,\\
Like one forgotten, mourn?\\
Forlorn, forsaken, and exposed\\
To my oppressor's scorn.\\
\\
Why restless, why cast down, my soul?\\
Hope still, and thou shalt sing\\
The praise of him who is thy God,\\
Thy health's eternal spring.\\
