Instruction from Scripture

Hymnal: Doctor Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David #225 (1787) First Line: How shall the young secure their hearts Lyrics: 1 How shall the young secure their hearts, And guard their lives from sin? Thy word the choicest rules imparts To keep the conscience clean. 2 When once it enters to the mind, It spreads such light abroad, The meanest souls instruction find, And raise their thoughts to God. 3 'Tis like the sun, a heavenly light, That guides us all the day; And through the dangers of the night, A lamp to lead our way. 4 The men that keep thy law with care, And meditate thy word, Grow wiser than their teachers are, And better know the Lord. 5 Thy precepts make me truly wise: I hate the sinner's road; I hate my own vain thoughts that rise, But love thy law, my God. 6 [The starry heavens thy rule obey, The earth maintains her place; And these thy servants night and day Thy skill and power express. 7 But still thy law, and gospel, Lord, Have lessons more divine; Not earth stands firmer than thy word, Nor stars so nobly shine.] 8 Thy word is everlasting truth How pure is every page! That holy book shall guide our youth, And well support our age.
