Blessed the man that fears Jehovah

In light of today’s sermon at Branch of Hope Orthodox Presbyterian Church, here’s the musical setting of Psalm 128 included in the Trinity Psalter (sung to the tune of “Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing”):

1. Blessed the man that fears Jehovah
And that walketh in His ways.
Thou shalt eat of thy hands’ labor;
And be prospered all thy days.

2. Like a vine with fruit abounding
In thy house thy wife is found
And like olive plants, thy children
Compassing thy table ’round

3. Lo, on him that fears Jehovah
Shall this blessedness attend
For Jehovah, out of Zion,
Shall to thee His blessings send

4. Thou shalt see Jerus’lem prosper
All thy days ’til life shall cease
Thou shalt see thy children’s children
Unto Israel be peace.
