Psalm 1
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 101 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 1 First Line: Blest is the man who shuns the place Lyrics:
Blest is the man who shuns the place
Where sinners love to meet;
Who fears to tread their wicked ways,
And hates the scoffer's seat:
But in the statutes of the Lord
Has placed his chief delight;
By day he reads or hears the word,
And meditates by night.
[He, like a plant of gen'rous kind,
By living waters set,
Safe from the storms and blasting wind,
Enjoys a peaceful state.]
Green as the leaf, and ever fair,
Shall his profession shine
While fruits of holiness appear
Like clusters on the vine.
Not so the impious and unjust;
What vain designs they form!
Their hopes are blown away like dust,
Or chaff before the storm.
Sinners in judgment shall not stand
Amongst the sons of grace,
When Christ, the Judge, at his right hand
Appoints his saints a place.
His eye beholds the path they tread,
His heart approves it well
But crooked ways of sinners lead
Down to the gates of hell.

Psalm 1
Psalm 1
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 117 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 1 First Line: The man is ever blessed Lyrics:
The man is ever blessed
Who shuns the sinners' ways,
Among their counsels never stands,
Nor takes the scorner's place;
But makes the law of God
His study and delight,
Amidst the labors of the day,
And watches of the night.
He like a tree shall thrive,
With waters near the root;
Fresh as the leaf his name shall live;
His works are heav'nly fruit.
Not so th' ungodly race,
They no such blessings find;
Their hopes shall flee, like empty chaff
Before the driving wind.
How will they bear to stand
Before that judgment-seat,
Where all the saints at Christ's right hand
In full assembly meet?
He knows, and he approves,
The way the righteous go;
But sinners and their works shall meet
A dreadful overthrow.

Psalm 1
How Blest Are They Who, Fearing God
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 26 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 1 Lyrics: 1 How blest are they who, fearing God,
from sin restrain their feet,
who will not with the wicked stand,
who shun the scorner's seat.
2 How blest are they who make God's law
their treasure and delight,
and meditate upon that word
with gladness day and night.
3 Their lives are nourished like a tree
set by the river's side
its leaf is green, its fruit is sure:
so all their works abide.
4 The wicked, like the driven chaff,
are blown across the land;
they shall not gather with the just,
nor in the judgment stand.
5 The LORD will guard the righteous well,
their way to him is known;
the way of sinners, far from God,
shall surely be o'erthrown.

How Blest Are They Who, Fearing God
Psalm 1: That man hath perfect blessedness
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 29 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 1 First Line: That man hath perfect blessedness Lyrics:
1That man hath perfect blessedness,
who walketh not astray
In counsel of ungodly men,
nor stands in sinners’ way,
Nor sitteth in the scorner’s chair:
2But placeth his delight
Upon God’s law, and meditates
on his law day and night.
3He shall be like a tree that grows
near planted by a river,
Which in his season yields his fruit,
and his leaf fadeth never:
And all he doth shall prosper well.
4The wicked are not so;
But like they are unto the chaff,
which wind drives to and fro.
5In judgment therefore shall not stand
such as ungodly are;
Nor in th’ assembly of the just
shall wicked men appear.
6For why? the way of godly men
unto the Lord is known:
Whereas the way of wicked men
shall quite be overthrown.
Psalm 1: That man hath perfect blessedness
Psalm 1
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 51 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 1 First Line: Happy the man whose cautious feet Lyrics:
Happy the man whose cautious feet
Shun the broad way that sinners go,
Who hates the place where atheists meet,
And fears to talk as scoffers do.
He loves t' employ the morning light
Amongst the statutes of the Lord;
And spends the wakeful hours of night,
With pleasure, pondering o'er his word.
He, like a plant by gentle streams,
Shall flourish in immortal green.
And heav'n will shine with kindest beams
On every work his hands begin.
But sinners find their counsels crossed:
As chaff before the tempest flies,
So shall their hopes be blown and lost,
When the last trumpet shakes the skies.
In vain the rebel seeks to stand
In judgment with the pious race;
The dreadful Judge, with stern command,
Divides him to a diff'rent place.
"Straight is the way my saints have trod;
I blessed the path, and drew it plain;
But you would choose the crooked road,
And down it leads to endless pain."

How blest is he who ne'er consents
Appears in 51 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 1 Lyrics: 1 How blest is he, who ne'er consents
by ill Advice to walk;
Nor stands in Sinners Ways; nor sits
where Men profanely talk!
2 But makes the perfect Law of God
his Bus'ness and Delight;
Devoutly reads therein by Day,
and meditates by Night.
3 Like some fair Tree, which, fed by Streams,
with timely Fruit does bend,
He still shall flourish, and Success
all his Designs attend.
4 Ungodly Men, and their Attempts,
no lasting Root shall find;
Untimely blasted, and dispers'd,
like Chaff before the Wind.
5 Their Guilt shall strike the Wicked dumb
before the Judge's Face:
No formal Hypocrite shall then
among the Saints have Place.
6 For God approves the just Man's Ways;
to Happiness they tend:
But Sinners, and the Paths they tread,
shall both in Ruin end.
How blest is he who ne'er consents

and with your lives adore him
who gave his life for all.

the Three in One and One in Three,
of whom all nature has creation,
eternal Father, Spirit, Word.
Praise to the Lord of my salvation;
salvation is of Christ the Lord!

our life, our work we consecrate to thee,
whose heavens declare thy glory from above,

the ocean glistening 'neath the golden rays:
they all are thine, and voiceless speak thy praise.

from thee the skilled musician's reasoned art,
the grace of poet's pen or painter's hand
to teach the loveliness of sea and land.
5 Then grant us, Lord, in all things thee to own,
to dwell within the shadow of thy throne,
to speak and work, to think and live, and move,
reflecting thine own nature, which is love:
6 That so, by Christ redeemed from sin and shame,
and hallowed by thy Spirit's cleansing flame,
ourselves, our work, and all our powers may be

And in his law he meditates
With pious pleasure day and night.
3 For he is like a goodly tree
By streams of waters planted near
Which in due season yields its fruit,
Whose leaf shall ever green appear;
And all he does shall prosper still.
4 But the ungodly are not so:
For they are like the chaff which by
The wind is driven to and fro.
5 Therefore in judgment shall not stand
Such as ungodly are, as clear;
Nor in th' assembly of the just
Shall sinners in that day appear.
6 Because the way of righteous men
The LORD with approbation knows;
Whereas the way of evil men
To their entire destruction goes.
O blessed man who walks not in

The heavens declare thy glory, Lord
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 592 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 1:2 Lyrics: 1 The heavens declare thy glory, Lord;
in every star thy wisdom shines;
but when our eyes behold thy word,
we read thy name in fairer lines.
2 The rolling sun, the changing light,
and nights and days, thy power confess;
but the blest volume thou hast writ
reveals thy justice and thy grace.
3 Sun, moon, and stars convey thy praise
round the whole earth, and never stand;
so, when thy truth began its race,
it touched and glanced on every land.
4 Nor shall thy spreading gospel rest
till through the world thy truth has run;
till Christ has all the nations blest
that see the light or feel the sun.
5 Great Sun of Righteousness, arise;
bless the dark world with heavenly light;
thy gospel makes the simple wise,
thy laws are pure, thy judgements right.

and make thy word my guide to heaven. Topics: Creation Used With Tune: BIRLING

Behold the glories of the Lamb
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 275 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 1 Lyrics:
Behold the glories of the Lamb
Amidst his Father's throne;
Prepare new honors for his name,
And songs before unknown.
Let elders worship at his feet,
The church adore around,
With vials full of odors sweet,
And harps of sweeter sound.
Those are the prayers of the saints,
And these the hymns they raise,
Jesus is kind to our Complaints,
He loves to hear our praise.
[Eternal Father, who shall look
Into thy secret will?
Who but the Son shall take that book,
And open every sea]?
He shall fulfil thy great decrees,
The Son deserves it well:
Lo! in his hand the sovereign keys
Of heav'n, and death, and hell!]
Now to the Lamb that once was slain
Be endless blessings paid;
Salvation, glory, joy, remain
For ever on thy head.
Thou hast redeemed our souls with blood,
Hast set the pris'ners free;
Hast made us kings and priests to God,
And we shall reign with thee.
The worlds of nature and of grace
Are put beneath thy power;
Then shorten these delaying days,
And bring the promised hour.

Lord, thy word abideth
Ere the blue heavens were stretch'd abroad
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 98 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 1 Lyrics:
Ere the blue heav'ns were stretched abroad,
From everlasting was the Word:
With God he was; the Word was God,
And must divinely be adored.
By his own power were all things made;
By him supported all things stand;
He is the whole creation's head,
And angels fly at his command.
Ere sin was born, or Satan fell,
He led the host of morning stars:
Thy generation who can tell,
Or count the numbers of thy years?
But lo! he leaves those heav'nly forms,
The Word descends and dwells in clay,
That he may hold converse with worms,
Dressed in such feeble flesh as they.
Mortals with joy beheld his face,
Th' eternal Father's only Son;
How full of truth! how full of grace!
When through his eyes the Godhead shone.
Archangels leave their high abode
To learn new mysteries here, and tell
The loves of our descending God,
The glories of Immanuel.

Thy mercy, my God, is the theme of my song
Meter: Irregular Appears in 94 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 1 Lyrics: 1 Thy mercy, my God, is the theme of my song;
The joy of my heart and the boast of my tongue:
Thy free grace alone, from the first to the last,
Hath won my affections, and bound my soul fast.
2 Without thy free mercy I could not live here;
Sin soon would reduce me to utter despair:
But, thro' thy free goodness, my spirits revive,
And he that first made me, still keeps me alive.
3 Whene'er I mistake, thy kind mercy begins
To melt me and then I can mourn for my sins;
And, led by the Spirit to Jesus's blood,
My sorrows are dry'd and my strength is renew'd.
4 Thy mercy is more than a match for my heart
Which wonders to feel its own hardness depart;
Dissolv'd by thy sun-shine, I fall to the ground
And weep to the praise of the mercy I found.
5 Thy mercy is endless, most tender and free;
No sinner need doubt, since 'tis given to me;
No merit will buy it, nor fears stop its course;
Good works are the fruits of its freeness and force.
6 Thy mercy in Jesus exempts me from hell;
Its glories I'll sing, and its wonders I'll tell;
'Twas Jesus my friend when he hung on the tree,
That open'd the channel of mercy for me.
7 Great Father of mercies, thy goodness I own,
And covenant love of thy crucified Son;
All praise to the Spirit whose witness divine
Seals mercy and pardon, and righteousness MINE.
Thy mercy, my God, is the theme of my song
