O Lord, Thy Perfect Righteousness

1 O Lord, Thy perfect righteousness
is in Thy judgments shown;
in Thy unchanging faithfulness
Thy truth Thou hast made known.

2 Because Thy foes forget Thy law
my soul is greatly stirred;
Thy servant loves the purity
of Thy most holy Word.

3 Though I am humble and despised,
I strive Thy will to do;
eternal is Thy righteousness,
and all Thy law is true.

4 Delight amid distress and pain
do Thy commandments give;
Thy word is righteous evermore,
teach me that I may live.
