O blest is he who never walks
In counsels where the ungodly meet,
Nor in the way of sinners stands,
Nor sitteth in the scorner’s seat.
The man who in Jehovah’s law
Hath learned to place his whole delight,
And on his word of wisdom loves
To meditate both day and night.
He shall be like a tree that stands
Beside a stream of water clear,
And in its season yields its fruit,
And keeps its foliage all the year.
All things shall prosper in his hand:
The ungodly have no root nor stay,
Like chaff which from the threshing floor
Before the wind is whirled away.
They shall not in the judgment stand,
No place among the blest is theirs:
The Lord, who loves the good man’s way,
For him a joyful home prepares.
