This is a song my daughter Faith wrote about 11 years ago in 2015 based on Psalm 119. She wrote the chorus and the first two verses. The Lord later inspired me to wrote the additional verses. We sing it to a different melody than the one in this video, which I composed using Mozart. I produced the video using PowerDirector with videos generated by Gemini.
Watch music video on Youtube.
Blessed Are They (lyrics)
(Chorus)
Blessed are they whose ways are blameless,
Who walk according to the law of the Lord
Blessed are they who keep his statutes
And seek him with all their heart
(Verse 1)
I have hidden your word in my heart
That I might not sin against you
Praise be to you, 0 Lord;
Teach me your decrees
(Chorus)
(Verse 2)
Your word is a lamp to my feet
And a light for my path
I have taken an oath and confirmed it,
That I will follow your righteous laws
(Chorus)
(Verse 3)
Make your face shine upon your servant
And teach me your decrees
Streams of tears flow from my eyes,
For your law is not obeyed
(Chorus)
(Verse 4)
Before dawn I rise and cry for help
I have put my hope in your Word
Throughout the night my eyes stay open
To dwell upon your promises
(Chorus)
(Verse 5)
Seven times a day I praise you
For your eternal righteous laws
May my lips overflow with praise
For you teach me your decrees
(Chorus)
(Verse 6)
May my tongue sing of your Word
For righteous are all your commands
Let me live that I may praise you
And may your laws sustain my life
(Chorus)
(Verse 7)
Toward your statutes turn my heart
And not toward selfish gain
Turn my eyes from worthless things
Through your word renew my life
(Chorus)

Do You Want to Know Him?
If you want to know Jesus personally, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Jesus. Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?
“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15). He preached that we must repent and believe.
Please see my explanation of this in my post called "Do You Want to Know Jesus?"
