Tune: St Anne
'God called great prophets to foretell'
Psalm 125
********
They that trust in the Lord shall be
As the mount Zion, see
Which cannot be removed, does stand
Abides e'er in the land
As the mountains are round about
And do surround, no doubt
Jerusalem, so the Lord is
Rounda bout us, true this
From henceforth even for ever
His presence always there
The wicked shall not their lot spoil
Evil plans not [the] good foil
Do good, Lord, to those that good be
Their upright hearts you see
Though the wicked be led astray
Lead [the] good in your peace-way

Indeed dear Mr o 🤣 does KP read?
Thanks T. Why yes, she reads everything - about botox! heehee.
Oh yes, and other things lol
Yes, she's a regular reader of 'The Old Trout Club' magazine too! heehee.
Angler times lol
Heehee. We have a Trout Close about a mile or so from where I live. If I pass by it on walks sometimes, it reminds me of her. Arrgghhh! Well, it is sort of near a river. The river is about another half mile away.
Awe bless you Mr o 💖
There's no escape from her - for anyone. Newpapers, magazines, TV, radio(?)! They will take me away soon. Then I will find it's named 'The Trout Asylum'. lol.
Lead us all toward peace and kindness. The wicked need a little more help. Good words Orchi
Thanks SB. The Psalmists call down wrath in some places, upon the wicked!
