How Blest The Righteous Are

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12172 Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 How blest the righteous are When they resign their breath! No wonder Balaam wished to share In such a happy death. "Oh! let me die," said he, "The death the righteous do; When life is ended let me be Found with the faithful few." 2 The force of truth how great! When enemies confess, None but the righteous whom they hate, A solid hope possess. But Balaam’s wish was vain, His heart was insincere; He thirsted for unrighteous gain, And sought a portion here. 3 He seemed the Lord to know, And to offend Him loth; But Mammon proved his overthrow, For none can serve them both. May you, my friends, and I, Warning from hence receive ; If like the righteous we would die, To choose the life they live. Languages: English Tune Title: LEOMINSTER
