“Happy Are Those Who Fear the Lord”
Happy are those who fear the LORD
And walk in all his ways;
Your toil will bring its full reward
And blessing crown your days.
Choice as a vine adorned with fruit
Shall be your loving wife,
And every child an olive shoot
That gladdens earthly life.
Thus shall the man who fears the Lord
Be blessed in all his ways;
From Zion’s God be blessing poured
Upon you all your days.
So may your eyes delight to see
Jerusalem prospering well,
Your children’s children yet to be,
And peace on Israel.
