Fret Not Nor Fear

orchidee



Tune: Ratisbon

('Christ whose glory fills the skies')

Psalm 37 v.1-7

**********

Fret not yourself o'er they who

Do evil, nor envy do

They who do wrong, for soon they

Shall be cut down, mown as hay

And like grass which fades away

Shall not endure judgement day

 

Trust in the Lord, and good do

So shall you dwell in land true

And shall be fed, provided

And by the Lord's hand be led

Delight yourself in Him too

He gives blessings not a few

 

And He shall desires of your

Heart give unto you, 'tis sure

Commit your way to the Lord

Trust in Him, His every word

And he shall things to pass bring

So shall you Him praise and sing

 

He shall uphold you, forth bring

You, vindicate you, each ting

It shall be seen as the light

His help to you, just and right

Rest in Him wait patiently

For Him, He your hope shall be

            Another beautiful hymn, Orchi...meanwhile, in the back pew, Scooby’s managed to knock over the offering plate and send poor Ol’ Tom scrambling for cover after Obi W. Ken scared him. Doing what? Doin't answer that!🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
