A Blessed Gospel

Verse 1

Blest are the souls that hear and know The gospel's joyful sound; Peace shall attend the path they go, And light their steps surround.

Verse 2

Their joy shall bear their spirits up Through their Redeemer's name; His righteousness exalts their hope, Nor Satan dares condemn.

Verse 3

The Lord, our glory and defence, Strength and salvation gives; Israel! thy King for ever reigns, Thy God for ever lives.
