Hymns Supplied Through the Gracious Generosity
of the Cyber Hymnal Website
Words: The Psalter Hymnal, 1927.
Music: "Redeemer (Emerson)," Luther Orlando Emerson, 1863 |
Blest is he who loves God's precepts,
Who from sin restraints his feet,
He who will not stand with sinners,
He who shuns the scorners' seat.
Blest is he who makes the statutes
Of the Lord his chief delight,
In God's law, divinely perfect,
Meditating day and night.
He is like a tree well planted
By the flowing river's side,
Ever green of leaf and fruitful:
Thus shall all his works abide.
Like the driven chaff the wicked
Shall be swept from off the land
With the just they shall not gather,
Nor shall in the judgment stand.
Well the Lord will guard the righteous,
For their way to Him is known;
But the way of evildoers
Shall by Him be overthrown.
