To You, O God
=============
m(How Can I Keep from Singing): Robert Lowry, 1860
w: from Psalms 25, adapted by Marty Haugen

[Refrain]
To you, O God, I lift my soul,
oh keep me free from shame.
I place my trust in you alone:
your promise and your name.

[Verse 1]
Let not the ones who wish me harm
rejoice to see me stumble.
No-one is shamed who waits for you;
you raise the weak and humble.

[Refrain]

[Verse 2]
Your ways, O God, make known to me;
your path be my vocation.
Lead me in truth and teach me well,
my God and my salvation.

[Refrain]

[Verse 3]
Throughout the day I wait for you:
your steadfast grace and mercy.
Remember not my youthful sins,
but, in your love, forgive me.

[Refrain]

[Verse 4]
So good and gen-'rous is our God
that sinners learn the true way.
God leads the poor in righteousness;
the humble find God's pathway.

[Refrain]
