Lord, lead me to the old paths,
the ones tried and true . . .
so I may follow Your ways
in all I set out to do.
Let me not forget Thy grace,
the election of my inheritance
let me not lose sight of You
due to my prideful arrogance.
Let me not be caught up in,
the gospel of convenience
one that doesn’t include
from sin any abstinence.
Help me to stand and see,
to consider and to compare
the path of Your righteousness
so to false teachers I’ll be aware.
Let me not be deceived,
by the spirit of this age
in the church of the godless
where You have been upstaged.
Lord, may I walk the old paths,
for I know they lead to You . . .
let me not walk on the paths
that the heathen people do!
~~~~~~~
“Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways,
and see, and ask for the old paths,
where is the good way, and walk therein,
and ye shall find rest for your souls.
But they said, We will not walk therein.”
