The Blessed Life
Hymnal: The Psalter #305 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Liberality First Line: How blest the man who fears the Lord Lyrics: 1 How blest the man who fears the Lord
And greatly loves God's holy will;
His children share his great reward,
And blessings all their days shall fill.
2 Abounding wealth shall bless his home,
His righteousness shall still endure;
To him shall light arise in gloom,
For he is merciful and pure.
3 The man whose hand the weak befriends
In judgment shall his cause maintain;
A peace unmoved his life attends,
And long his mem'ry shall remain.
4 Of evil tidings not afraid,
His trust is in the Lord alone;
His heart is steadfast, undismayed,
For he shall see his foes o'erthrown.
5 With kind remembrance of the poor,
For their distress his gifts provide;
His righteousness shall thus endure,
His name in honor shall abide.
6 To shame the wicked shall be brought,
While righteous men shall favor gain;
Unrighteous hopes shall come to naught,
Its due reward shall sin obtain. Scripture: Psalm 112 Languages: English Tune Title: WELTON
The Blessed Life
That man is blest who stands in awe
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #307 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Liberality rewarded Lyrics:
That man is blest who stands in awe
Of God, and loves his sacred law:
His seed on earth shall be renowned;
His house the seat of wealth shall be,
An inexhausted treasury,
And with successive honors crowned.
His lib'ral favors he extends,
To some he gives, to others lends;
A gen'rous pity fills his mind:
Yet what his charity impairs,
He saves by prudence in affairs
And thus he's just to all mankind.
His hands, while they his alms bestowed,
His glory's future harvest sowed;
The sweet remembrance of the just,
Like a green root, revives and bears
A train of blessings for his heirs,
When dying nature sleeps in dust.
Beset with threat'ning dangers round,
Unmoved shall he maintain his ground;
His conscience holds his courage up:
The soul that's filled with virtue's light,
Shines brightest in affliction's night,
And sees in darkness beams of hope.
[Ill tidings never can surprise
His heart that fixed on God relies,
Though waves and tempests roar around:
Safe on the rock he sits, and sees
The shipwreck of his enemies,
And all their hope and glory drowned.
The wicked shall his triumph see,
And gnash their teeth in agony,
To find their expectations crossed;
They and their envy, pride, and spite,
Sink down to everlasting night,
And all their names in darkness lost.]
Scripture: Psalm 112 Languages: English
That man is blest who stands in awe
Thrice happy man who fears the Lord
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #308 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Liberality rewarded Lyrics:
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Scripture: Psalm 112 Languages: English
Thrice happy man who fears the Lord
Happy is he that fears the Lord
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #309 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Liberality rewarded Lyrics:
Happy is he that fears the Lord,
And follows his commands;
Who lends the poor without reward,
Or gives with lib'ral hands.
As pity dwells within his breast
To all the sons of need;
So God shall answer his request
With blessings on his seed.
No evil tidings shall surprise
His well-established mind;
His soul to God his refuge flies,
And leaves his fears behind.
In times of general distress
Some beams of light shall shine,
To show the world his righteousness,
And give him peace divine.
His works of piety and love
Remain before the Lord;
Honor on earth and joys above
Shall be his sure reward.
Scripture: Psalm 112 Languages: English
Happy is he that fears the Lord
Patient Endurance and Submission
Hymnal: The Psalter #331 (1912) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Liberality First Line: My soul for Thy salvation faints Lyrics: 1 My soul for Thy salvation faints,
But still I hope in Thee;
I long to see thy promised help,
When Thou shalt comfort me.
2 Thy statues I do not forget,
Tho' wasting grief I know;
Thy servant's days are few, O Lord;
When wilt Thou judge my foe?
3 The proud, disdainful of Thy law,
Entrap me wrongfully;
O Thou, Whose law is just and true,
Help and deliver me.
4 Almost consumed, yet from Thy law
I have not turned away;
In loving-kindness give me strength,
That I may still obey.

When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay
Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #427 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Liberality Lyrics: 1 When Jesus dwelt in mortal clay,
What were His works, from day to day,
But miracles of power and grace,
Which spread salvation through our race?
2 Teach us, O Lord, to keep in view
Thy pattern, and Thy steps pursue:
Let alms bestow'd, let kindness done,
Be witness'd by each rolling sun.
3 That man may last, but never lives,
Who much receives, but nothing gives;
Whom none can love, whom none can thank,
Creation's blot, creation's blank.
4 But he who marks from day to day
In gen'rous acts his radiant way,
Treads the same path the Saviour trod,
The path to glory and to God. Languages: English
