God's wordPrayer

16 I will delight in Your statutes; I will not forget Your word.

17 Deal bountifully with Your servant, that I may live and keep Your word.

Open my eyes that I may see wondrous things from Your law.

19 I am a stranger on the earth; do not hide Your commandments from me.

20 My soul is consumed with longing for Your judgments at all times.
