They will guide you when you walk. They will guard you when you sleep. They will speak to you when you are awake.
I have taken your words to heart so I would not sin against you.
I stay awake all night so I can think about your promises.
Your rules give me pleasure; they give me good advice.
I sing about your demands wherever I live.
How can a young person live a pure life? By obeying your word.
How I love your teachings! I think about them all day long.
I have obeyed your commands, so I have not done what evil people do.
Thousands of troops may surround me, but I am not afraid.
Send me your light and truth to guide me. Let them lead me to your holy mountain, to where you live.
Good sense will protect you; understanding will guard you.
