KJV Text (alt. audio): Chapter 101:

     1 A Psalm of David. I will sing of mercy and judgment: unto thee, O LORD, will I sing. 2 I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart. 3 I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me. 4 A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person. 5 Whoso privily slandereth his neighbour, him will I cut off: him that hath an high look and a proud heart will not I suffer. 6 Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me. 7 He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: he that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight. 8 I will early destroy all the wicked of the land; that I may cut off all wicked doers from the city of the LORD.(KJV)

1. Thy way, not mine, O Lord, 
However dark it be. 
Lead me by Thine own hand; 
Choose Thou the path for me. 
I dare not choose my lot; 
I would not if I might. 
Choose Thou for me, my God; 
So shall I walk aright. 

2. Choose Thou for me my friends, 
My sickness or my health; 
Choose Thou my cares for me, 
My poverty or wealth. 
Not mine, not mine, the choice, 
In things or great or small; 
Be Thou my Guide, my Strength, 
My Wisdom, and my All.
