Psalms 128

• [Psa 128:1] Happy The Man Who Feareth God

  Happy the man who feareth God, Whose feet His holy ways have trod; Thine own good hand shall nourish thee, And well and happy shalt thou be. Thy wife shall, like a fruitful vine, Fill all thy house with clusters fine; Thy children all be fresh and sound, Like olive-plants thy table round. Lo! to the man these blessings cleave Who in God’s holy fear doth live; From him the ancient curse hath fled By Adam’s race inherited. Out of Mount Zion God shall send, And crown with joy thy latter end; That thou Jerusalem mayst see, In favor and prosperity. He shall be with thee in thy ways, And give thee health and length of days; Yea, thou shalt children’s children see, And peace on Israel shall be.

• [Psa 128:1] What Cheering Words Are These!

  What cheering words are these! Their sweetness who can tell? In time and to eternity, ’Tis with the righteous well; In time and to eternity, ’Tis with the righteous well. In every state secure, Kept by Jehovah’s eye, ’Tis well with them while life endures, And well when called to die; ’Tis well with them while life endures, And well when called to die. ’Tis well when joys arise, ’Tis well when sorrows bow, ’Tis well when darkness veils the skies, And strong temptations blow; ’Tis well when darkness veils the skies, And strong temptations blow. ’Tis well when on the mount They feast on dying love, And ’tis as well in God’s account, When they the furnace prove; And ’tis as well in God’s account, When they the furnace prove.

• [Psa 128:2] Balm In Secret Prayer

  Pray on, pray on, O trusting heart, Let not thy courage fail; But take thy Savior at His word, And know thou shalt prevail. Refrain Tho’ the cross is hard to bear, There is balm in secret prayer; Go and tell thy sorrows there, And leave it all with Jesus. What tho’ thy prayers thro’ many tears May reach His throne on high; He knows the anguish of thy heart, And will not pass thee by. Refrain Perhaps in some desponding hour, When hope has well nigh past, The light will burst upon thy soul, And joy be thine at last. Refrain Pray on, pray on, O weary not, Whate’er thy trial be; But lean thy faith on Him Who said, “It shall be well with thee.” Refrain

• [Psa 128:4] Blest The Man That Fears Jehovah

  Blest the man that fears Jehovah Walking ever in His ways By thy toil thou shalt be prospered And be happy all thy days. In thy wife thou shalt have gladness, She shall fill thy home with good, Happy in her loving service And the joys of motherhood. Joyful children, sons and daughters Shall about thy table meet; Olive plants in strength and beauty Full of hope and promise sweet. Lo, on him that fears Jehovah Shall this blessedness attend, For Jehovah out of Zion Shall to thee His blessing send. Blest the man that fears Jehovah Walking ever in His ways. By thy toil thou shalt be prospered And be happy all thy days. Thou shalt see God’s kingdom prosper All thy days, till life shall cease, Thou shalt see thy children’s children. On Thy people, Lord, be peace.
