Lyics

BLESSED is he that wisely doth

The poor man's case consider;

For when the time of trouble is,

The Lord will him deliver.



God will him keep, Yea, save alove;

On earth he bless'd shall live;

And to his enemies' desire

Thou wilt not him up give.



God will give strength when he on bed

Of languishing doth mourn;

And in his sickness sore, O Lord,

Thou all his bed wilt turn.



The Lord, the God of Israel,

Be bless'd for ever then,

From age to age eternally.

Amen, yea, and amen.
