A Vindication of God's Ways
Hymnal: The Psalter #201a (1912) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Topics: Prosperity Without God's Blessing First Line: God loveth the righteous, His goodness is sure Lyrics: 1 God loveth the righteous, His goodness is sure,
He never forsaketh the good and the pure;
Yet once my faith faltered, I envied the proud,
In doubt and disquiet my spirit was bowed.
2 The wicked are prospered and firm is their strength,
No pangs do they suffer, though death come at length;
They are not in trouble as other men are,
The plagues of their fellows they view from afar.
3 In garments of boasting and violence decked,
With wealth more abundant than heart could expect,
They scoff, and the helpless they proudly oppress,
The heav'ns and the earth they assume to possess.
4 Despising God's people, they cause them to drain
The cup of oppression, injustice, and pain;
They question God's knowledge and boldly defy
The might and the justice of God the Most High.
5 The wicked, grown wealthy, have comfort and peace,
While I, daily chastened, see troubles increase,
And, wronging God's children, I cried in my pain,
That clean hands are worthless and pure hearts are vain.
6 I went to God's temple: my doubts were dispelled,
The end of life's journey I clearly beheld;
I saw in what peril ungodly men stand
With sudden destruction and ruin at hand.
7 As when one awaking forgetteth his dream,
So God will despise them, though great they may seem;
My envy was senseless, my grief was for nought,
Because i was faithless, and foolish my thought. Scripture: Psalm 73 Languages: English Tune Title: MOBILE

My Heart Was Glad to Hear the Welcome Sound
Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #278 (1934) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Prosperity Lyrics: 1 My heart was glad to hear the welcome sound,
The call to seek Jehovah's house of prayer;
Our feet are standing here on holy ground,
Within thy gates, thou city grand and fair.
2 God's people to Jerusalem repair
To hear His Word and worship Him with praise;
The throne of justice stands eternal there,
Messiah's throne through endless length of days.
3 Let earnest prayer be made for Zion's peace;
Thy sons who hold thee dear shall prosper well;
May blessing in thy palaces increase
And peace within thy walls forever dwell.
4 For all my brethren and companions' sakes
My prayer shall be, Let peace in thee abide;
Since God the Lord in thee His dwelling makes,
To thee my love shall never be denied. Scripture: Psalm 122 Languages: English Tune Title: MORECAMBE

Blessed Is the Man
Author: Michael Baughen Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #564 (1990) Meter: 11.14.12.12.8.8 Topics: Prosperity First Line: Blessed is the man, the man who does not walk Lyrics: 1 Blessed is the man,
the man who does not walk in the counsel of the ungodly;
blessed is that man.
He who rejects the way, rejects the way of sin
and who turns away from scoffing:
blessed is that man.
But his delight, by day and night,
is the law of God Almighty.
2 He is like a tree,
a tree that flourishes, being planted by the water:
blessed is that man.
He will bring forth fruit, his leaf will wither not,
for in all he does he prospers:
blessed is that man.
For his delight, by day and night,
is the law of God Almighty.
3 The ungodly are not so,
for they are like the chaff which the wind blows clean away.
The ungodly are not so.
The ungodly will not stand upon the judgment day
nor belong to God's own people:
the ungodly will not stand.
But God knows the way of righteous men
and ungodly ways will perish.
Blessed is the man,
the man who does not walk
in the counsel of the ungodly:
blessed is that man.

Psalm 55
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.124 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Prosperity dangerous First Line: O God, my refuge, hear my cries Lyrics:
O God, my refuge, hear my cries,
"Behold my flowing tears;
For earth and hell my hurt devise,
And triumph in my fears.
Their rage is leveled at my life,
My soul with guilt they load,
And fill my thoughts with inward strife,
To shake my hope in God.
With inward pain my heart-strings sound,
I groan with ev'ry breath;
Horror and fear beset me round
Amongst the shades of death.
O were I like a feathered dove,
And innocence had wings,
I'd fly, and make a long remove
From all these restless things.
Let me to some wild desert go,
And find a peaceful home;
Where storms of malice never blow,
Temptations never come.
Vain hopes, and vain inventions all
To 'scape the rage of hell!
The mighty God on whom I call,
Can save me here as well.
By morning light I'll seek his face,
At noon repeat my cry;
The night shall hear me ask his grace,
Nor will he long deny.
God shall preserve my soul from fear,
Or shield me when afraid;
Ten thousand angels must appear,
If he command their aid.
I cast my burdens on the Lord,
The Lord sustains them all;
My courage rests upon his word,
That saints shall never fall.
My highest hopes shall not be vain,
My lips shall spread his praise;
While cruel and deceitful men
Scarce live out half their days.

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.125 (1806) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Prosperity dangerous First Line: Let sinners take their course Lyrics:
Let sinners take their course,
And choose the road to death
But in the worship of my God
I'll spend my daily breath.
My thoughts address his throne
When morning brings the light;
I'll seek his blessing every noon,
And pay my vows at night.
Thou wilt regard my cries,
O my eternal God,
While sinners perish in surprise,
Beneath thine angry rod.
Because they dwell at ease,
And no sad changes feel,
They neither fear nor trust thy name,
Nor learn to do thy will.
But I with all my cares
Will lean upon the Lord;
I'll cast my burdens on his arm,
And rest upon his word.
His arm shall well sustain
The children of his love;
The ground on which their safety stands,
No earthly power can move.

Psalm 144 Part 1
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.323 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Nation's prosperity First Line: For ever blessed be the Lord Lyrics:
For ever blessed be the Lord,
My Savior and my shield;
He sends his Spirit with his word,
To arm me for the field.
When sin and hell their force unite,
He makes my soul his care,
Instructs me to the heav'nly fight,
And guards me through the war.
A friend and helper so divine
Does my weak courage raise;
He makes the glorious vict'ry mine,
And his shall be the praise.

Lord, what is man, poor feeble man,
Born of the earth at first?
His life a shadow, light and vain,
Still hasting to the dust.
O what is feeble, dying man,
Or any of his race,
That God should make it his concern
To visit him with grace?
That God who darts his lightnings down,
Who shakes the worlds above,
And mountains tremble at his frown,
How wondrous is his love!

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.325 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Nation's prosperity First Line: Happy the city where their sons Lyrics:
Happy the city where their sons,
Like pillars round a palace set,
And daughters, bright as polished stones,
Give strength and beauty to the state.
Happy the country where the sheep,
Cattle, and corn, have large increase;
Where men securely work or sleep,
Nor sons of plunder break the peace.
Happy the nation thus endowed,
But more divinely blest are those
On whom the all-sufficient God
Himself with all his grace bestows.
