Now be a tuneful song addressed,
To our indulgent God,
Who sends his word, a light to shine
And mark the heavenly road.
‘Tis here a hidden treasure lies,
But we must dig to find;
Thy word’s a cordial to the weak,
A guide to lead the blind.
Open our eyes, oh Lord, to see
The wonders in thy law;
From hence may we our only hope,
And all our comforts draw.
Now while we feel its sacred power,
Our hearts with love shall glow;
To the wide world we’ll shout thy praise
And all thy glories show.
