How Blest and Happy

Verse 1

How blest and happy is the man Who walketh not astray In counsel of ungodly men, Nor stand in sinner's way.

Chorus

Blessed, blessed is the man that walketh not In the counsel of the wicked, But his delight is in the law of the Lord. His delight is in the law of the Lord.

Verse 2

Nor sitteth in the scorner’s seat, But places his delight Upon God’s law, and meditates On His word both day and night.

Verse 3

He shall be like a tree that grows Set by a river’s side, Which in its season yields its fruit, And green its leaves abide.

Verse 4

And all he does shall prosper well; The wicked are not so, But like the chaff before the wind, Are driven to and fro.
