I'll Sing Of Mercy And Of Justice
Psalm 101
Dwight Armstrong

I'll sing of mercy and of justice, Lord, I'll sing to thee.
With wisdom in a perfect way shall my behavior be.
O when, in kindness unto me, wilt thou be pleased to come?
I with a perfect heart will walk within my house at home.

I will endure no wicked thing before mine eyes to be:
I hate their work that turn aside, it shall not cleave to me.
A stubborn and a froward heart shall quite depart from me;
A person giv'n to wickedness I will not know at all.

I'll cut him off that slandereth his neighbor privily:
The haughty heart I will not bear, nor him that looketh high.
Upon the faithful of the land mine eyes shall always be,
With favor shall I look on them, that they may dwell with me:

No man who practices deceit shall dwell within my house;
And in my presence shall no man remain who utters lies.
Yea, all the wicked of the land I early will destroy;
And cut off evil doers from the city of the Lord.
