Psalm 119:1-8 Part 7

            ALEPH
Joyful are people of integrity,
    who follow the instructions of the LORD.
Joyful are those who obey his laws
    and search for him with all their hearts.
They do not compromise with evil,
    and they walk only in his paths.
You have charged us
    to keep your commandments carefully.
Oh, that my actions would consistently
    reflect your decrees! 
Then I will not be ashamed
    when I compare my life with your commands.
As I learn your righteous regulations,
    I will thank you by living as I should!
I will obey your decrees.
    Please don't give up on me! 
 
I will obey your decrees. Please don't give up on me!
