Delight in Scripture; or, The word of God dwelling in us. <br /> <br />ver. 97 <br /> <br />O how I love thy holy law! <br />'Tis daily my delight; <br />And thence my meditations draw <br />Divine advice by night. <br /> <br />ver. 148 <br /> <br />My waking eyes prevent the day <br />To meditate thy word; <br />My soul with longing melts away <br />To hear thy gospel, Lord. <br /> <br />ver. 3,13,54 <br /> <br />How doth thy word my heart engage! <br />How well employ my tongue! <br />And in my tiresome pilgrimage, <br />Yields me a heav'nly song. <br /> <br />ver. 19,103 <br /> <br />Am I a stranger or at home, <br />'Tis my perpetual feast; <br />Not honey dropping from the comb <br />So much allures the taste. <br /> <br />ver. 72,127 <br /> <br />No treasures so enrich the mind; <br />Nor shall thy word be sold <br />For loads of silver well refined, <br />Nor heaps of choicest gold. <br /> <br />ver. 28,49,175 <br /> <br />When nature sinks, and spirits droop, <br />Thy promises of grace <br />Are pillars to support my hope, <br />And there I write thy praise.<br /><br />Isaac Watts<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/psalm-119-part-5/
