Psalm I

Bless'd is the man who hath not walk'd

In counsel of the wicked, and

Of sinners hath not stood, and in the

Of scorners hath not sate.  But in the

Jehovahs Law is ever his delight,

And in his law he studies day and night.

He shall be as a tree which planted

By watry streams, and in his season

To yield his fruit, and his leaf shall not fall.

And what he takes in hand shall prosper all.                        Not so the wicked, but as chaff which

The wind drives, so the wicked shall not

In judgment, or abide their tryal

Nor sinners in th'assembly of just men.

For the Lord knows th'upright way of the

And the way of bad men to ruine must.
