"My soul cleaveth unto the dust: quicken me according to Thy Word.... I have stuck unto Thy testimonies" (Psalm 119: 25,31). "The heart of the righteous studieth to answer" (Proverbs 15:28).
My soul cleaves to the things, I know,
That surely turn to dust.
And yet my heart will not let go
Of truth I've learned to trust.
Your Word, oh Lord, is where I find
The truth that makes me free.
So I would give my heart and mind
To study carefully.
And thus would I be free at last
From dust to which I cleave.
And thus when seekers come to ask,
I'll say why I believe.
