Hymns of the Lutheran Church

425 O that the Lord would guide my ways,

1 O that the Lord would guide my ways, To keep His statutes still! O that my God would grant me grace, To know and do His will! 2 Order my footsteps by Thy word, And make my heart sincere; Let sin have no dominion, Lord, But keep my conscience clear. 3 Assist my soul, too apt to stray, A stricter watch to keep; And should I e'er forget Thy way, Restore Thy wandering sheep. 4 Make me to walk in Thy commands; 'Tis a delightful road: Nor let my head, or heart, or hands, Offend against my God.
