Tune: Nun Danket

('Now thank we all our God')

Psalm 125

********

They that trust in the Lord

Shall find Him true to His word

They shall be as the mount

Zion, whence springs blessings fount

Which cannot be removed

Through troubles it has proved

That it remains, abides

Here each in God confides

 

As the mountains are round

About Jerusalem, found

Is the Lord's true presence

Round about His people, sense

We, from henceforth even

For ever, it is seen

By faith that He is here

His safe-keeping, it near

 

For wicked's deeds shall not

Rest upon the righteous' lot

Lest the righteous do sin

From godly path do begin

To turn, but the Lord shall

Keep them, they shall do well

Do good, Lord, unto they

That be good, know your way

 

And He shall bless upright

They who do right in His sight

As for such as do turn

To wicked ways, they shall learn

From the Lord, He shall lead

Them away they not heed

Him, but on His people

Peace shall be on them all
