Hymn IX. Psal. 112.1, 2.
Praise ye the Lord, for blest are those That fear the Lord aright, That greatly love his Sacred Laws, And do them with delight. The upright man's successful seed On Earth shall mighty grow, To all that from his Loins descend Shall special Blessings flow.
PRaise ye the Lord, for blest are those That fear the Lord aright, That greatly love his Sacred Laws, And do them with delight. The upright man's successful seed On Earth shall mighty grow, To all that from his Loins descend Shall special Blessings flow.
3, 4. Riches and Wealth shall in his house Abound from day to day, Whilst Graces do adorn his Soul, More durable than they. In midst of darkness, to the Just There springs a joyful Light; Gracious he is, compassionate, And every way upright.
5, 6, 7. He lends assistance to the Poor, Discreetly guides his way; Nothing shall ever move the Just, Nor make his Name decay: For any evil tidings told He shall not be afraid, But trusting in the Lord alone; His heart is sixth and staid.
