Representative Text

1 Happy he who walketh ever
In the ways of God, our Lord;
Happy he who sinneth never
’Gainst the teachings of His Word;
Whose delight is Him to serve,
Day by day and year by year;
From His precepts ne’er to swerve;
Unto peace shall he be near.

2 He shall flourish like a flower,
Planted by the waterside;
God will give him grace and power,
In his virtue to abide.
By the help of God, most tender,
Shall he prosper in his ways;
Virtue shall be his defender,
Blessèd shall be all his days.
