('The atoning work is done' = 'Now is eternal life')
Psalm 112 v.1-6
*********
Praise you the Lord, blessed is
The man/woman that fears Him, this
Be true, and who delight
Greatly to do the right
To follow His commandments, their
Children in prosperity share
Their generation blessed
Be, this is sure confessed
Wealth and riches shall be
In his house steadfastly
His righteousness ever endures
The Lord provides him from His stores
Unto the upright there
Arises anywhere
Light in the darkness, he
Is gracious, and kind be
Full of compassion, and righteous
The Lord with graces does him bless
A good man/woman shows favour
And lends, his mercies stir
He will guide his affairs
Discreetly, with good shares
Surely he shall not be moved e'er
Shall be remembered, forgot ne'er
