A Blessed People
There is a sound filled with joy
loud exhortation filles the air
a people know this so well
blessed they are so want to share
This people have their daily walk
in Lord's countenance so full of light
shining bright their faces ablaze
the Lord stays close day and night
In the name of the God most high
rejoicing for ever all the day long
such a blessed people they truly are
singing His praises an eternal song
Receiving God's perfect righteousness
fully exalting among heavens finest
this is divine blessing beyond compare
such is our God the most kindest
This is our God the blessed Lord
victory assured when at His side
powerfully perfect always in charge
may we learn to constantly abide
('Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O Lord, in the light of thy countenance.
In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.')
Psalm 89: 15,16 (ESV)
