Tune: Herongate
(\'It is a thing most wonderful\')
Psalm 128
*********
Blessed is every one that does fear
The Lord, with awe, they do draw near
And walk in His ways, for they shall
Eat fruit of their labours, do well
Happy shall they be, their wives be
As fruitful vines by houses, see
Their children as olive plants round
Their tables, known the joyful sound
Behold, that thus shall they blessed be
Who do fear the Lord constantly
The Lord shall bless them from the place
Of Zion, they His mercies trace
They shall see the good of city
Of Jerusalem, fine it be
All the days of their life, and they
With future generations pray
