Tune: Darwall

(Ye holy angels bright')

Psalm 125

***********

They that trust in the Lord

Shall be as says His word

As mount Zion, cannot

Be removed, firm their lot

But they abide for ever, He

Their rock and sure foundation be

 

As the mountains are round

Jerusalem, so round

About His people, so

They His presence do know

He surrounds them, e'en for ever

His protections they cease never

 

Fro wicked shall not stay

With righteous in their day

lest righteous turn their hands

To evil in their lands

Do good, O Lord, to those that be

Good, upright in heart, them you see

 

As such as turn aside

To crooked ways allied

The Lord shall them forth lead

And cast them out indeed

But peace shall be on Israel

Jew and Gentile, all God's people

    This one is something special Orchi. It is powerful and yet reassuring. Nicely done my friend

      Thank you SB. The singers don\'t seem to be giving it all their attention. Maybe I should have chosen a better clip.

        I couldn't say for sure my friend. To be honest, not just on yours, but on all, I never listen to any clips. I want to give my full attention to the poem or written hymn without distraction. However you make a good point Orchi I will listen to your clips it they have to do with the hymn you wrote. And I beg pardon if I assumed that the music you presented was a different hymn not yours

        Orchi, I see what you’re doing here…while I’ve got murderers, conspirators, severed bits, and assorted dreadful persons wandering about, you’ve quietly stationed Psalm 125 around the perimeter. 😂 I suppose somebody has to keep Popeyeus from turning Mount Zion into a spinach plantation. And truly, with all my Devilishly Dreadful coming out, I’m glad we have some Divinely Delightful coming from you. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

          Thank you T. lol. I gotta oppose this darkness stuff. Obi's battling against it with his sabres. Ol' Tom's attempting it to battle too, but could do some damage with those knitting needles, and Popeye said he is 'going green' with spinach of course. lol.
