Psalm 128 T. S.
Words: Sternhold and Hopkins, The Whole Book of Psalms Collected into English Metre
1 Blessèd art thou that fearest God,
and walkest in his ways;
For of thy labor thou shalt eat,
happy shall be thy days.
2 Like fruitful vines on thy house-side,
so doth thy wife spring out;
Thy children stand like olive plants
thy table round about.
3 Thus art thou blest that fearest God,
and he shall let thee see
The promised Jerusalem,
and her felicity.
4 Thou shalt thy children's children see,
to thy great joy's increase
And likewise grace on Israel,
prosperity and peace.
