(\'Blest are the pure in heart\')

Psalm 128

*******

Blessed they that the LORD fear

And do hold His name dear

They that walk in His ways, they shall

Trust in Him and fare well

 

They shall eat of labour

Of their hands, each hour

That they did work, and happy be

They in all good things, see

 

Your wife as fruitful vine

Shall be, blessings divine

In your house there, and your children

Be as olive plants then

 

A true happy household

This shall sure be, behold

So shall they be that the LORD fear

And do hold His name dear

 

The LORD from Zion shall

Bless you, and all shall tell

Of His goodness, and you shall see

Jerusalem\'s good, free

 

Yes, your children\'s children

Next generations then

You shall see, for on Israel

Shall be peace, all be well
