The Righteous and the Evil-Doer

Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Prosperity Without God's Blessing First Line: The wicked, watching for their prey Lyrics: 1 The wicked, watching for their prey, Desire the righteous man to slay, But God is on his side; He will not leave him in their hands, Nor count him guilty when he stands In judgment to be tried. 2 Wait on the Lord and keep His way; He will exalt thee, nor delay To give the land to thee; And when the wicked are cut off, The wicked who against thee scoff, Their judgment thou shalt see. 3 The wicked in great pow'r are seen, Like spreading tree with foliage green That grows in native ground. I looked again, they were no more; I sought the men so proud before, But they could not be found. 4 Mark thou the upright day by day, Behold the perfect in his way; His journey ends in peace. Destroyed at once shall rebels be; Cut off from all posterity, Their very name shall cease. 5 Salvation is from God, alone, Whom as their covert saints have known When by sore troubles tried; The Lord Who helped in troubles past Will save them to the very last, For they in Him confide. Scripture: Psalm 37 Used With Tune: RAPTURE
