Lyrics
(Instrumental Upbeating Intro)
(Verse 1)
Blessed is the man, who walks not in the ungodly's plan,
Stands not in the sinner's band, sits not in the scornful's land.
His delight, in the law of the Lord, he meditates day and night,
Like a tree by the water's side, bearing fruit in time and tide.
(Bridge)
In the heat of the day, or the cool of the night,
In the law of the Lord, he finds his might.
Against the wind, against the tide,
In the Lord's law, he takes his stride.
(Chorus)
He's like a tree, planted by the water's flow,
His leaf won't wither, in His law, he continues to grow.
All he does is blessed, under the sun's glow,
The way of the righteous, the Lord surely knows.
(Verse 2)
The wicked are not so, they're like chaff in the wind that blow,
Driven away, to and fro, in the judgment, they've nothing to show.
Ungodly shall not stand, nor sinners in the righteous' band,
For the Lord knows the righteous' way, but the ungodly shall decay.
(Bridge)
In the storm, in the fray,
The righteous man does not sway.
With the Lord's law as his guide,
He stands tall, with the tide.
(Chorus)
He's like a tree, planted by the water's flow,
His leaf won't wither, in His law, he continues to grow.
All he does is blessed, under the sun's glow,
The way of the righteous, the Lord surely knows.
He's like a tree, planted by the water's flow,
His leaf won't wither, in His law, he continues to grow.
All he does is blessed, under the sun's glow,
The way of the righteous, the Lord surely knows.
(Outro)
Blessed is the man, who walks in the righteous' clan,
In the law of the Lord, he scans, living according to His plan.
