Blest Are Those Who Love You
Blessed art thou, that fearest God
Author: T. S. Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 128 Lyrics: 1 Blessed art thou, that fearest God,
and walkest in his ways;
For of thy labour thou shalt eat,
happy shall be thy days.
2 Like fruitful vines on thy house side,
so doth thy wife spring out;
Thy children stand like olive-plants
thy table round about.
3 Thus art thou blest that fearest God,
and he shall let thee see
The promised Jerusalem,
and her felicity.
4 Thou shalt thy children's children see,
to thy great joy's encrease
And likewise grace on Israel,
prosperity and peace.
Blessed art thou, that fearest God

walking ever in his ways;
by your toil you shall be prospered
and be happy all your days.
2 In your wife you shall have gladness,
she shall fill your home with good,
happy in her loving service
and the joys of motherhood.
3 Joyful children, sons and daughters,
shall about your table meet,
olive plants, in strength and beauty,
full of hope and promise sweet.
4 Lo, on him who fears Jehovah
shall this blessedness attend,
for Jehovah out of Zion
shall to you his blessing send.
5 You shall see God's kingdom prosper
all your days, till life shall cease,
you shall see your children's children;
on your people, Lord, be peace!

John L. Bell
b. 1949 Person Name: John L. Bell (b. 1949) Scripture: Psalm 128 Author of "Lord and lover of creation" in Ancient and Modern John Bell (b. 1949) was born in the Scottish town of Kilmarnock in Ayrshire, intending to be a music teacher when he felt the call to the ministry. But in frustration with his classes, he did volunteer work in a deprived neighborhood in London for a time and also served for two years as an associate pastor at the English Reformed Church in Amsterdam. After graduating he worked for five years as a youth pastor for the Church of Scotland, serving a large region that included about 500 churches. He then took a similar position with the Iona Community, and with his colleague Graham Maule, began to broaden the youth ministry to focus on renewal of the church’s worship. His approach soon turned to composing songs within the identifiable traditions of hymnody that began to address concerns missing from the current Scottish hymnal:
"I discovered that seldom did our hymns represent the plight of poor people to God. There was nothing that dealt with unemployment, nothing that dealt with living in a multicultural society and feeling disenfranchised. There was nothing about child abuse…,that reflected concern for the developing world, nothing that helped see ourselves as brothers and sisters to those who are suffering from poverty or persecution." [from an interview in Reformed Worship (March 1993)]
That concern not only led to writing many songs, but increasingly to introducing them internationally in many conferences, while also gathering songs from around the world. He was convener for the fourth edition of the Church of Scotland’s Church Hymnary (2005), a very different collection from the previous 1973 edition. His books, The Singing Thing and The Singing Thing Too, as well as the many collections of songs and worship resources produced by John Bell—some together with other members of the Iona Community’s “Wild Goose Resource Group,” —are available in North America from GIA Publications.
