Walking In Integrity -Psalm 101

Voice aloud a melody to the Lord
of His justice and love to trust
ponder much of His perfect way
walk in integrity heart full ready to burst

Promise never to look at worthlessness
hating works of those that fall
run away from perverseness and folly
to know no evil make you call

Destroy all the secret slanderers
don’t give time to arrogant of heart
look with favour on the faithful
so they dwell with you not just a part

Shut your door on the deceitful
make sure wars will not before you endure
every morning destroy all of the wicked
from God’s city cut off all evil to be sure

(Psalm 101)
