God's Hand Made and Fashioned Me - Psalm 119: 73-80

God's hand has created many a soul
finding its shape as He did wish
ask of Him for real understanding
help He'll give by His holy word's daily dish

Have a real hope in God's word
so those that fear God can rejoice
in one's heart knowing of God's rules
truly righteous to give a true voice

In one's affliction, God is faithful
so be comforted by His love divine
for in it one will live in your mercy
delightful is His law make it mine

Beware of those that practice falsehood
make sure of in the law to meditate
so to never be in the path of shame
stand fast so learn not to speculate

(This is my " Psalm 119 project" which I began to write a couple of years ago, so this is the tenth poem of twenty-two poems I've written over that time to cover all of Psalm 119.)
