Tune: Richmond
(one tune to 'Praise to the holiest in the height')
Psalm 1 v.1-3
*******
Blessed they that walk not in counsel
Of wicked, they not fall
Nor do they in sinners ways stand
But guided by God's hand
Nor in seat of scornful do sit
The Lord their path has lit
Their delight is in His law true
They keep it e'er in view
In His law do they meditate
Day and night, early, late
They shall be like trees planted by
Rivers of water nigh
They bring forth fruit in their seasons
They be productive ones
Leaves shall not fall, and whatsoe'er
They do shall prosper fair

An excellently written piece of poetic advice here orchidee.
Though, in this modern life; it's hard with so much stimuli around us, that act as distractions, we should try to keep focused, and thus, find our own "good ways!"
Bravo, and I hope that all is well!
Thanks AS.
