Blessed Is the One Who Fears the Lord
Blessed is the man who fears
the Lord in all of his ways…
He will be blessed in everything
he does all of his days.
He shall also eat of the
labor of his hands…
His family shall be blessed
throughout the lands.
His wife will be a fruitful vine
close by his side…
The blessings from heaven
shall open up wide.
His children will be like olive
plants around the table.
In all that he does. He knows
God is more than able!
Yes. Blessed is the man
who fears the Lord!
Goodness and mercy in his
life shall be stored.
The Lord God shall bless
him out of Zion.
Behold! The glory of God
in him is shiinin!
He shall see the children his
children shall bear…
And shall see the blessings
of God everywhere!
Peace shall be his in that
he does endeavor…
For the God of Israel shall
be with him forever!
