Prosperous People

Tune: Abridge

(\'Be thou my guardian and my guide\')

Psalm 37 parts

*******

The meek shall the earth inherit

Their path with joy be lit

They shall in abundance of peace

Delight, pleasures ne\'er cease

 

A little that a righteous one

Has, is better than none

\'Tis greater than the riches, yes

That wicked do possess

 

Steps of good men and women, see

They be the Lord sure be

Established and ordered, and He

Delights in their way free

 

The Lord loves judgement, He does keep

His people as His sheep

Forsakes them not, preserved they are

But wicked cast off far

 

The salvation of the righteous

Is of the Lord, e\'en us

He helps, gives strength in troubles times

His aid through all life\'s rhymes
