Psalm 1

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.3 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Happy the man whose cautious feet Lyrics: Happy the man whose cautious feet Shun the broad way that sinners go, Who hates the place where atheists meet, And fears to talk as scoffers do. He loves t' employ the morning light Amongst the statutes of the Lord; And spends the wakeful hours of night, With pleasure, pondering o'er his word. He, like a plant by gentle streams, Shall flourish in immortal green. And heav'n will shine with kindest beams On every work his hands begin. But sinners find their counsels crossed: As chaff before the tempest flies, So shall their hopes be blown and lost, When the last trumpet shakes the skies. In vain the rebel seeks to stand In judgment with the pious race; The dreadful Judge, with stern command, Divides him to a diff'rent place. "Straight is the way my saints have trod; I blessed the path, and drew it plain; But you would choose the crooked road, And down it leads to endless pain." Topics: Blessings of a person; End of the righteous and wicked; Happy saint and cursed sinner; Judgment day; Love of God to the righteous, and hatred to the wicked; Meditation; Punishment of sinners; Saints and sinner's end; Saints and Sinners' portion; Saints happy, and sinners cursed; Sinner and saint's portion; Sinner cursed, and saint happy Scripture: Psalm 1 Languages: English

The Difference between the Righteous and the Wicked

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #3 (1740) First Line: Happy the Man, whose cautious Feet Lyrics: 1 Happy the Man, whose cautious Feet Shun the broad Way that Sinners go, Who hates the Place where Atheists meet, And fears to talk as Scoffers do. 2 He loves t' employ the Morning-Light Amongst the Statutes of the Lord; And spends the wakeful Hours of Night, With Pleasure, pondering o'er the Word. 3 He like a Plant by gentle Streams, Shall flourish in immortal Green; And Heav'n will shine with kindest Beams On every Work his Hands begin. 4 But Sinners find their Counsels crost; As Chaff before the Tempest flies, So shall their Hopes be blown and lost, When the last Trumpet shakes the Skies. 5 In vain the Rebel seeks to stand In Judgment with the pious Race: The dreadful Judge with stern Command, Divides him to a different Place. 6 "Strait is the Way my Saints have trod, "I blessed the Path, and drew it plain; "But you would chuse the crooked Road; "And down it leads to endless Pain."
