Bounteous Blessings

Tune: Diademata

('Crown Him with many crowns')

Psalm 85 v.8-13

******

What will the Lord God say

As I listen today

I trust assured He will speak peace

His mercies never cease

Saints His good word shall hear

Obey in lowly fear

But turn not to folly again

For shall not prosper then

 

His salvation sure nigh

Them that fear Him do cry

Unto Him, and do fear His name

Who ever stays the same

And so shall glory dwell

In our land, we shall tell

Of God's blessings and His presence

Him with us we do sense

 

Mercy and truth are met

Together, remain yet

Righteousness and peace they have kissed

Their purposes not missed

Truth from the earth shall spring

Good tidings shall it bring

And righteousness from heaven look down

Upon our city, town

 

Yes, the Lord He shall give

What is good, we shall live

And our land shall yield her increase

Presided by His peace

Righteousness shall too go

Before Him, we shall know

His way, for He shall our steps set

Shall not His love forget

        It helps to recognize all that we have as opposed to look at what we don't. Well said friend.
