1 How blest are those who fear the LORD and greatly love God’s holy will. 2 Their children share their great reward, and blessings all their days shall fill. 3 Abounding wealth shall bless their home, their righteousness fore’er endure. 4 When times grow dark and all is gloom, the light of their mercy is pure. 5 The righteous generously lend and justice for the poor maintain. 6 True peace shall their whole life attend, and long shall their memory remain. 7 By evil tidings not dismayed, the righteous trust in God alone. 8 Their heart is steadfast, unafraid, for they shall see their foes o’erthrown. 9 Wealth they disburse among the poor, their reputation shall abide. 10 The wicked look on and are sour; they are swallowed up by their pride. – cento
