HE HAS LED ME
J.A. Matteson
“Lead me in Your truth and teach me, for You are the God of my salvation; for You I wait all the day.”
Psalm 25:5
Surely the LORD is good to Israel, to those who call upon His name in Spirit and truth;
By His hand He has led me to the mountain crest to behold His glory;
He causes my heart to fear and tremble in the presence of His majesty;
As I consider Your splendor, O LORD, the wisdom of Your decrees, and the goodness of Your care;
The nearness of Your Spirit captivates me, unspeakable joy fills my heart;
My lips will praise Your works for Your namesake; be glorified, O LORD, in the words of my mouth;
Incline Your ear to me, listen to my petition;
You spoke and my heart was jolted as a beast of burden under a yoke;
Sweet is the instruction of the LORD, peaceful are His ways;
Kind is the rebuke of the LORD, gentle is His chastisement;
You incline my heart to seek You, to thirst after Your ordinances as living water;
Grace upon grace has enveloped me, the LORD’s mercy and kindness are my refuge;
The LORD is my resting place, I will not be afraid; He quiets my soul and stills my restless heart;
Blessed are the children of Israel who by faith revere the LORD Most High;
He causes His face to shine upon them, they will not be moved;
They take their meals in gladness with simplicity of heart, their sleep is sweet;
Praise the LORD, you children of Abraham, exalt the LORD of heaven;
Bless the name of the Son of glory, Christ Jesus, for His lovingkindess neither fades nor withers.
