Tune: Abridge
(\'Be thou my guardian and my guide\')
Psalm 37 v.8-11
*********
Cease from anger, and wrath forsake
And humility take
Fret not yourself to do evil
Trust the Lord, on Him call
For evildoers they shall sure
Be cut off, be no more
But those that wait upon the Lord
It shall be as His word
His word that they shall inherit
The earth whole in each whit
For yet a little while, and see
Wicked ones shall not be
But the meek it is they who shall
Inherit the earth well
Shall delight themselves in great peace
Abundance shall not cease
