Blest Is He Who Loves God's Precepts

Verse 1

Blest is he who loves God's precepts, Who from sin restrains his feet, He who will not stand with sinners, He who shuns the scorner's seat.

Verse 2

Blest is he who makes the statutes Of the Lord his chief delight, In God's law, divinely perfect, Meditating day and night.

Verse 3

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.
