God's Commandments Are Fine Gold - Psalm 119: 121-128
Having done what I consider right
I plead to rescue me from oppression
those that seek my harm always
keep me safe from every tension
Please as your servant find good
may I know peace and your presence
so that God's salvation be in me
looking to the Lord for His essence
Cast your love upon me, please
tell me fully your holy law
so to fulfill all your righteousness
this makes me truly stand in awe
As your servant I want understanding
so I learn that you are true
in due time trust, you'll act
seeing sin judgment is due
Gold real shining fine gold
describes your holy commandment
so right are all of your law
hating all sin is my pronouncement
(This is my " Psalm 119 project" which I began to write a couple of years ago, so this is the sixteenth poem of twenty-two poems I've written over that time to cover all of Psalm 119.)
