The Godly Guided

orchidee



Tune: Lux Eoi

('Saviour, visit thy plantation'

= 'Alleluia, Alleluia! Hearts to heaven)

Psalm 37 v.28-34

********

The Lord loves judgment and justice

Forsakes not His saints, true this

They are preserved e'en for ever

Wicked destroy them never

The righteous, they shall inheirt

The land, with God's presence lit

They shall therein forever dwell

And of the Lord's goodness tell

 

Mouth of the righteous wisdom speaks

Ways and words of God each seeks

They do talk of justice, judgement

From God above it is sent

The law of God be in their heart

They devoted, every part

None of their steps shall slip, stumble

The Lord shall uphold them all

 

The wicked do watch the righteosu

Seek to slay them, not them bless

The Lord will not leave them there for

He will come to their aid sure

Save them from the hand of they who

Are set to wickedness do

Wait on the Lord, and keep His way

He shall bring salvation's day

  • Comment from author about the poem: A hymn-poem in 8.7.8.7. 8.7.8.7. It is a more well-known tune to an Easter hymn, but a lesser well-known hymn in the video. I found out a set of hymns to fairly familiar tunes, but with different words - providing I know the tunes in the first place!
