How Truly Blest Are They

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 117 hymnals Topics: Ten Commandments 3rd Commandment (Remember the Sabbath) Lyrics: 1 How truly blest are they who shun the sinners' ways, among their counsels never stand, nor take the scorners' place, 2 But make the law of God their study and delight amid the labors of the day and watches of the night. 3 He like a tree shall thrive with waters near the root. Fresh as the leaf their name shall live; their works are heav'nly fruit. 4 The wicked are not so! They no such blessing find. Their hopes shall flee like empty chaff before the driving wind. 5 How will they bear to stand before that judgment seat where all the saints at Christ's right hand in full assembly meet? 6 God knows and he approves the way the righteous go, but sinners and their works shall meet a dreadful overthrow.

Look to him, your Savior, in temptation's hour; let his will enfold you in its light and power. 6 Christians, this Lord Jesus shall return again, with his Father's glory, o'er the earth to reign; for all wreaths of empire meet upon his brow, and our hearts confess him King of glory now.

Now with Joyful Exultation

Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 15 hymnals Topics: Remembering Lyrics: 1 Now with joyful exultation let us sing to God our praise; to the Rock of our salvation loud hosannas let us raise. Thankful tribute gladly bringing, let us come before him now, and, with psalms his praises singing, joyful in his presence bow. 2 For how great a God, and glorious, is the LORD of whom we sing; over idol gods victorious, great is he, our God and King. In his hand are earth's deep places, also his are all the hills; his the sea whose bounds he traces, his the land his bounty fills. 3 To the LORD, such might revealing, let us come with reverence meet, and, before our Maker kneeling, let us worship at his feet. He is our own God who leads us, we the people of his care; with a shepherd's hand he feeds us as his flock in pastures fair. 4 While he offers peace and pardon let us hear his voice today, lest, if we our hearts should harden, we should perish in the way-- lest to us, so unbelieving, he in judgment should declare: "You, so long my Spirit grieving, never in my rest will share."
