The Difference between the Righteous and the Wicked
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #3 (1740) Publication Date: 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." Topics: Blessings of a person; Charity and justice; End of Righteous and Wicked; Happy Saint and cursed Sinner; Judgment day; Love of God to the righteous, and hatred to the wicked; Meditation; Saints and Sinners End; Saints and Sinners Portion Scripture: Psalm 1 Languages: English
