Lamp and Light

"Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.... The wicked have laid a snare for me: yet I erred not from Thy precepts.... I have inclined mine heart to perform Thy statutes always, even unto the end" (Psalm 119:105,110,112).

Your Word, oh Lord, shines at my feet,
A lamp to guide each step with care.
Thereby I may always meet
Each day avoiding every snare.

Your Word, oh Lord, shines on my path,
To show the things which lie ahead.
Thereby I have fled from wrath,
And heavenward I now am led.

Your Word is both a lamp and light
To guide my feet and show Your way.
Lord, guard and guide my steps aright,
And lead me lest I go astray.
