Beatus vir
Author: T. S. Hymnal: The Whole Booke of Psalmes #1a (1640) First Line: The man is blest that hath not bent Lyrics: 1 The man is blest that hath not bent
to wicked read his eare:
Nor led his life as sinners do,
nor sate in scorners chaire.
2 But in the law of God the Lord,
doth for his whole delight
And in that law doth exercise
himself both day and night.
3 He shall be like the tree that growes
fast by the rivers side,
Which bringeth forth most pleasant fruit
in her due time and tide.
Whose leafe shall never fade nor fall
but flourish still and stand,
Even so all things shall prosper well
that this man takes in hand.
4 So shall not the ungodly men,
they shall be nothing so:
But as the dust which from the earth
the wind drives to and fro.
5 Therefore shall not the wicked men
in judgement stand upright
Nor yet the sinners with the just,
shall come in place or sight.
6 For why? the way of godly men
unto the Lord is known;
And eke the way of wicked men
shall quite be overthrown. Scripture: Psalm 1 Languages: English Tune Title: [The man is blest that hath not bent]
Beatus vir
The man is blest that hath not bent
Hymnal: The Christian Psalter #d538 (1841)
The man is blest that hath not bent
The man is blest that hath not lent
Author: T. S. Hymnal: The Whole Book of Psalms #I (1790) Lyrics: 1 The man is blest that hath not lent
to wicked men his ear,
Nor led his life as sinners do,
nor sat in scorner's chair.
2 But in the law of God the Lord
doth set his whole delight,
And in the same doth exercise
himself both day and night.
3 He shall be like a tree that is
planted the rivers nigh,
Which in due season bringeth forth
its fruit abundantly;
4 Whose leaf shall never fade nor fall,
but flourishing shall stand:
Ev'n so all things shall prosper well
that this man takes in hand.
5 As for ungodly men, with them
it shall be nothing so;
But as the chaff, which by the wind
is driven to and fro.
6 Therefore the wicked men shall not
in judgment stand upright,
Nor in th' assembly of the just
shall sinners come in sight.
7 For why? The way of godly men
unto the Lord is known;
Whereas the way of wicked men
shall quite be overthrown. Scripture: Psalm 1 Languages: English
The man is blest that hath not lent
