Thrice Happy Man Who Fears The Lord

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12508 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Thrice happy man who fears the Lord, Loves His commands, and trusts His Word; Honor and peace his days attend, And blessings to his seed descend. 2 Compassion dwells upon His mind, To works of mercy still inclined; He lends the poor some present aid, Or gives them, not to be repaid. 3 When times grow dark, and tidings spread That fill his neighbors round with dread, His heart is armed against the fear, For God with all His power is there. 4 His soul, well fixed upon the Lord, Draws heav’nly courage from His Word; Amidst the darkness light shall rise, To cheer his heart and bless his eyes. 5 He hath dispersed his alms abroad; His works are still before His God; His name on earth shall long remain, While envious sinners fret in vain.
