I am a sojourner on the earth; hide not your commandments from me!
Continue to impress Your commandments upon me as I travel through this land. Let me not forget that “I’m just a passin’ through… this land is not my own” It is Your Law that provides my sense of identity, that tells me who I am and who I owe my allegiance to. I am yours and yours alone.
My soul is consumed with longing for your rules at all times.
Why not? It is Your rules that give consistency to my life, that provide coherence and purpose. Why should I not be consumed with longing for the Word from the very One who lifted me out of sin and corruption?
