Lyrics
I will sing of loving kindness and justice To you, LORD, I will sing praises
I will be careful to live a blameless life When will you come to me? I will walk within my house with a blameless heart I will set no vile thing before my eyes
I hate the deeds of faithless men They will not cling to me A perverse heart will be far from me I will have nothing to do with evil
I will silence whoever secretly slanders his neighbour I won’t tolerate one who is arrogant and conceited My eyes will be on the faithful of the land That they may dwell with me
He who walks in a perfect way He will serve me He who practices deceit won’t dwell within my house He who speaks falsehood won’t be established before my eyes
Morning by morning, I will destroy all the wicked of the land To cut off all the workers of iniquity From the LORD’s city I have set my heart to walk in righteousness
I will love those who know my ways I will walk with the faithful I will be careful to live a blameless life When will you come to me?
I will sing of loving kindness and justice To you, LORD, I will sing praises I will walk within my house with a blameless heart
I will sing of your loving kindness Forever
