Twenty-second PART. TAU

Lord, let my Cry approach my Face; As thou hast spoke, me prudent make. Let my Request, before Thee, come; Deliver me, for thy Word's Sake. Then shall my Lips pour forth thy Praise; When me, thy Statutes, thou shalt teach. All thy Commands are Righteousness; Therefore my Tongue thy Word shall preach. Let thine almighty Hand me help; For I, thy Precepts, made my Choice. Lord, I for thy Salvation long; And greatly in thy Law rejoice. Prolong my Life, and I'll Thee praise; Let me thy promis'd Succour find. Thy Servant seek, like lost Sheep stray'd; For I thy Precepts bear in Mind.
