The man is ever blest

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #440 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Blessedness of obedience Lyrics: 1 That one is ever blest Who shuns the sinners’ ways, Among their councils never stands, Nor takes a scorner's place. 2 But makes the law of God His study and delight, Amidst 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, his name shall live, His works are heavenly fruit. 4 Not so th'ungodly race, They no such blessings find; Their hopes shall flee like empty chaff Before the driving wind. 5 How will they bear to stand Before the judgment-seat, Where all the saints at Christ's right hand In full assembly meet? 6 He knows and He approves The way the righteous go: But sinners and their works shall meet A dreadful overthrow.

What cheering words are these?

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #441 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Blessedness of piety Lyrics: 1 What cheering words are these? Their sweetness who can tell? In time and to eternity, ’Tis with the righteous well. 2 In ev'ry state secure, Kept by Jehovah’s eye, ’Tis well with them while life endures, And well when call'd to die. 3 ’Tis well when joys arise, ’Tis well when sorrows flow; ’Tis well when darkness veils the skies, And strong temptations blow. 4 ’Tis well when on the mount They feast on dying love; And ’tis as well, in God’s account, When they the furnace prove. 5 'Tis well when at His throne They wrestle, weep, and pray; 'Tis well when at His feet they groan, Yet bring their wants away. 6 'Tis well when Jesus calls: "From earth and sin, arise, Join with the hosts of virgin souls, Made to salvation wise!"
