Psalms 101:1
I will sing of Your loving devotion and justice; to You, O LORD, I will sing praises.
2 I will ponder the way that is blameless— when will You come to me? I will walk in my house with integrity of heart.
3 I will set no worthless thing before my eyes. I hate the work of those who fall away; it shall not cling to me.
