Mr. Baxter's PARAPHRASE ON THE PSALMS.
To the Tune of Old 100.
1 Blest is the man who doth avoid The Counsel of ungodly mates; Who stands not in the sinners way, Nor sitteth in the scorners seats.
2 But in the holy Law of God Doth choose and place his chief delight; And (with sincere obedient heart) Meditates in it day and night.
3 We shall be like the prospering tree That planted by a rivers side, In season yieldeth plenteous fruit, Whose leaf doth always green abide.
