The Man Is Ever Blessed

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Lutheran Service Book #705 (2006) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The man is ever blessed Who shuns the sinners' ways, Among their counsels never stands, Nor takes the scorners' place. 2 But makes the Law of God His study and delight Amid the labors of the day And watches of the night. 3 He like a tree shall thrive, With waters near the root; Fresh as the leaf his name shall live, His works are heav'nly fruit. 4 Not so the wicked race, They no such blessings find; Their hopes shall flee like empty chaff Before the driving wind. 5 How will they bear to stand Before the judgment seat Where all the saints at Christ's right hand In full assembly meet? 6 He knows and He approves The way the righteous go; But sinners and their works shall meet A dreadful overflow.
