Blest is the Man, to whom the GOD of Heaven
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #XXXII (1767) Topics: Description of Happiness of Man Lyrics: 1 Blest is the Man, to whom the GOD of Heaven,
All his Transgressions freely hath forgiven:
Whose Guilt is cover'd, and shall not appear;
At GOD's Tribunal to condemn him there.
Thrice bless'd is he, who as he has transgressed,
With contrite Heart hath all his Crimes confessed;
To whom the LORD will not impute his Sin,
And whose pure Soul from all Deceit is clean.
2 Whilst I concael'd my Sin, my heart was grieved,
My Bones consuming could not be relieved;
All Day, did I with Anguish roar;
But no Complaints assuag'd my fretting Sore.
Heavy, O LORD! thy Hand on me remain'd,
And I was quite of vital Moisture drained;
Like parched Lands, with Summer's Drought opprest,
And equally by Day and Night distress'd.
3 But I no sooner had my Guilt disclosed,
Than thy Forgiveness kindly interposed;
I shew'd the Wound that tortur'd me within,
And Mercy's healing Balm was poured in.
Thus with Success Repentance shall be crowned,
Whilst in the Flood the thoughtless Wretch is drowned:
To those who seek, and would thy Pardon find,
Thou art, O LORD! in mercy still inclin'd.
Part II
4 Thy Mercies never fail, when I'm distressed,
By thee, my haughty Foes are all suppressed:
Thou art my Refuge, safe I will rejoice,
And thee, my Saviour, praise with Heart and Voice.
If then my safe Instructions you confide in,
The sacred paths of Truth you will abide in;
Your Progress I securely will direct,
And with my watchful Eye your Ways protect.
5 Be ye like Men who Reason have attained,
And not like those whose Fury must be reined;
Behave not like th' ungovern'd Horse or Mule,
But yield yourselves to Wisdom's sacred Rule,
Sorrows on Sorrows ever multiplied,
Are heap'd on those who have the LORD defied;
While plenteous Mercy shall the Just surround,
Who have in him their only Refuge found.
6 Then let the Saints be glad in GOD their Saviour;
Rejoice, ye Righteous, in th' Almighty's Favour:
Ye upright ones, your chearful Voices raise,
In grateful Raptures sing JEHOVAH's Praise.

Obey'd and suffer'd in our place,
Then took it with him to his throne.

While wond'ring angels round him throng,
And swell the chorus of his praise. Languages: English

Great God, and dwell before thy face?
The man who minds religion now,
And humbly walk with God below:
2 Whose hands are pure, whose heart is clean;
Whose lips shall speak the things they mean;
No slanders dwell upon his tongue;
He hates to do his neighbour wrong.
3 [Scarce will he trust an ill report,
Nor vent it to his neighbour's hurt:
Sinners of state he can despise,
But saints are honour'd in his eyes.]
4 [Firm to his word he ever stood,
And always makes his promise good
Nor dares to change the thing he swears,
Whatever pain or loss he bears.]
5 [He never deals in bribing gold,
And mourns that justice should be sold:
While others scorn and wrong the poor,
Sweet charity attends his door.]
6 He loves his enemies, and prays
For those that curse him to his face;
And doth to all men still the same
That he would hope or wish from them.
7 Yet, when his holiest works are done,
His soul depends on grace alone:
This is the man thy face shall see,
And dwell for ever, Lord, with thee. Scripture: Psalm 15 Languages: English
