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.)

I admire your analysis of Psalm 119. Not an easy thing to do as most Psalms have meanings within meanings. I have written some inspirational poems but mainly I write on mundane things. However my poems are always religiously correct.
