Priljubljene svetopisemske vrstice iz Psalms of David 16

Deli

Thou shalt the paths of life display, That to thy presence lead; Where pleasures dwell without allay, And joys that never fade.

I strive each action to approve To his all-seeing eye; No danger shall my hopes remove, Because he still is.

My lot is fall’n in that blest land Where God is truly known; He fills my cup with lib’ral hand; ’Tis he supports my throne.

Therefore my soul shall bless the Lord, Whose precepts give me light, And private counsel still afford In sorrow’s dismal night.

In nature’s most delightful scene My happy portion lies; The place of my appointed reign All other lands outvies.

PROTECT me from my cruel foes, And shield me, Lord, from harm, Because my trust I still repose On thy Almighty arm.
