The Way and End of the Righteous and the Wicked

Appears in 103 hymnals Topics: Blessings of a person; Blessings of a person First Line: Blest is the man who shuns the place Lyrics: 1 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. 2 But in the statutes of the Lord, Has plac'd his chief delight; By day he reads or hears the word, And meditates by night. 3 [He like a plant of generous kind, By living waters set, Safe from the storms and blasting wind, Enjoys a peaceful state.] 4 Green as the leaf, and ever fair Shall his profession shine; While fruits of holiness appear Like clusters on the vine. 5 Not so the impious and unjust; What vain designs they form! Their hopes are blown away like dust, Or chaff before the storm. 6 Sinners in judgment shall not stand Among the sons of grace, When Christ the Judge at his right-hand Appoints his saints a place. 7 His eye beholds the path they tread, His heart approves it well; But crooked ways of sinners lead Down to the gates of hell. Scripture: Psalm 1

Scripture: Psalm 68:17-18

Appears in 25 hymnals Topics: Blessings of a person; Blessings of a person First Line: How blest the man to whom his God Lyrics: 1 How blest the man to whom his God No more imputes his sin, But wash'd in the Redeemer's blood Hath made his garments clean! 2 And blest beyond expression he, Whose debts are thus discharg'd; And from the guilty bondage free He feels his soul enlarg'd. 3 His spirit hates deceit and lies, His words are all sincere: He guards his heart, he guards his eyes, To keep his conscience clear. 4 While I my inward guilt supprest, No quiet could I find; Thy wrath lay burning in my breast, And rack'd my tortur'd mind. 5 Then I confess'd my troubled thoughts, My secret sins reveal'd, Thy pardoning grace forgave my faults, Thy grace my pardon seal'd. 6 This shall invite thy saints to pray; When like a raging flood Temptations rise, our strength and stay Is a forgiving God. Scripture: Psalm 32

His counsel stands through every age, And in full glory shines. Scripture: Psalm 33
