Oh, how I love your law
Oh, how I love your law  
It lifts the heart, it clears the mind.
It lifts the heart, it clears the mind.  
The proud fall silent,
The proud fall silent,  
stand in awe before the scriptures you designed.
stand in awe before the scriptures you designed.


More than the wise, I understand,  
More than the wise, I understand,
since I have heard, and I believe,  
since I have heard, and I believe,
freedom no sages could conceive  
freedom no sages could conceive
until they follow your command.  
until they follow your command.


I shall not walk the wicked path  
I shall not walk the wicked path
for I remember and obey  
for I remember and obey
Why should I hesitate? I laugh,  
Why should I hesitate? I laugh,
Grateful you taught the poor to pray
Grateful you taught the poor to pray


How sweet are your words to my taste,  
How sweet are your words to my taste,
Sweeter than honey to my mouth!  
Sweeter than honey to my mouth!
Sweeter than honey to my mouth,  
Sweeter than honey to my mouth,
the words that bind and liberate.
the words that bind and liberate.


Oh, how I love your law,  
Oh, how I love your law,
Elegant, simple, without flaw  
Elegant, simple, without flaw
Oh, how I love your law.
Oh, how I love your law.}}

Oh, how I love your law
It lifts the heart, it clears the mind.
The proud fall silent,
stand in awe before the scriptures you designed.

More than the wise, I understand,
since I have heard, and I believe,
freedom no sages could conceive
until they follow your command.

I shall not walk the wicked path
for I remember and obey
Why should I hesitate? I laugh,
Grateful you taught the poor to pray

How sweet are your words to my taste,
Sweeter than honey to my mouth!
Sweeter than honey to my mouth,
the words that bind and liberate.

Oh, how I love your law,
Elegant, simple, without flaw
Oh, how I love your law.
