<p>How blest the man who fears the Lord<br>
|
|
And greatly loves God’s holy will;<br>
|
|
His children share his great reward,<br>
|
|
And blessings all their days shall fill.</p>
|
|
<p>Abounding wealth shall bless his home,<br>
|
|
His righteousness shall still endure,<br>
|
|
To him shall light arise in gloom,<br>
|
|
For he is merciful and pure.</p>
|
|
<p>The man whose hand the weak befriends<br>
|
|
In judgment shall his cause maintain;<br>
|
|
A peace unmoved his life attends,<br>
|
|
And long his memory shall remain.</p>
|
|
<p>Of evil tidings not afraid,<br>
|
|
His trust is in the Lord alone;<br>
|
|
His heart is steadfast, undismayed,<br>
|
|
For he shall see his foes o’erthrown.</p>
|
|
<p>With kind remembrance of the poor,<br>
|
|
For their distress his gifts provide;<br>
|
|
His righteousness shall thus endure,<br>
|
|
His name in honor shall abide.</p>
|
|
<p>To shame the wicked shall be brought,<br>
|
|
While righteous men shall favor gain;<br>
|
|
Unrighteous hopes shall come to naught,<br>
|
|
Its due reward shall sin obtain.</p>
