THE PSALMS OF DAVID

IN METRE.

1

m 1 THAT man hath perfect blessedness
who walketh not astray
In counsel of ungodly men,

mf 2

nor stands in sinners' way,
Nor sitteth in the scorner's chair:
But placeth his delight

Upon God's law, and meditates
on his law day and night.

3 He shall be like a tree that grows
near planted by a river,

mp 4

Which in his season yields his fruit,
and his leaf fadeth never :

And all he doth shall prosper well.
The wicked are not so;

But like they are unto the chaff,
which wind drives to and fro.

m 5 In judgment therefore shall not stand such as ungodly are;

Nor in th' assembly of the just

shall wicked men appear.

mf 6 For why? the way of godly men
unto the Lord is known:

Whereas the way of wicked men
shall quite be overthrown.
