The Man Is Ever Blest

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #414 (1941) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Scripture: Psalm 1 Lyrics: 1 The man is ever blessed Who shuns the sinners’ ways, Among their councils never stands, Nor takes the scorners’ place, 2 But makes the Law of God His 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 his name shall live; His works are heav’nly 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 that 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.
