Thy statutes have been my songs The matter of my songs, my delight and recreation; in the house of my pilgrimage In this present world, wherein I am a pilgrim, as all my fathers were. I have remembered thy name Thy holy nature and attributes; thy blessed word and thy wonderful works; in the night When darkness causeth fear to others, I took pleasure in remembering thee; and when others gave themselves up to sleeps my thoughts and affections were working toward thee; and have kept thy law This was the fruit of my serious remembrance of thee. This I had This comfortable and profitable remembrance of thy name and statutes; because I kept thy precepts Which if I had wilfully and wickedly broken, the remembrance of these would have been a cause of grief and terror to me, as now it is a source of peace and comfort.
