Text

My God the steps of pious men
Are ordered by thy will.
Though they should fall they rise again,
Thy hand supports them still.

Chorus:
The law of God be in our hearts,
The holy law of God.

The Lord delights to see their ways,
Their virtue he approves;
He'll ne'er deprive them of his grace
Nor leave the men he loves.

Wait on the Lord, ye sons of men,
Nor fear when tyrants frown;
Ye shall confess their pride was sin
When justice casts them down.
