Favored Feet

"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" (Psalm 119:105,110).

There is a snare laid for my feet
That's hidden in the way,
And yet I do not need retreat,
But only to obey.

I only need God's precious Word
To be my lamp and light.
Obeying then what I have heard
Will guide my feet aright.

How many snares were hid for me
I never knew were there!
But God, of course, could surely see
Each underlying snare.

Thus my favored feet are led,
By heeding God's command.
For if I do as God has said,
I shall not fall, but stand.
