The Good Way

orchidee



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!
