Verse 1
How shall our children and young ones
Take heed and cleanse their way,
Only by taking heed thereto
According to Thy word.

Thy word entered into the heart,
And sheds its light abroad,
It gives wisdom to the simple,
And the knowledge of God.

Thy word, is sun, our light Divine,
Our guide in noon-day bright,
And lamp unto our feet alway
From dangers of the night.

Verse 4
Thy word is everlasting Truth
It is all clean and pure,
Our guide in all our joyful days,
A staff for our old age.
