O bless'd is he who does the poor
Hymnal: The Psalms Hymns and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New Testament, faithfully translated into English Metre #PXLI (1773) Hymnal Title: The Psalms Hymns and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New Testament, faithfully translated into English Metre Lyrics: 1 O bless'd is he that does the poor
consider and relieve!
The LORD deliv'rance will to him
in time of trouble give.
2 The LORD will keep and make him live;
on earth he bless'd shall be;
Thou wilt not give him to the will
of any enemy.
3 Upon the bed of languishing
the LORD will him sustain;
Yea thou wilt easy make his bed
when sick or seiz'd with pain.
4 I said, "JEHOVAH now to me
"thy tender grace I crave;
"Heal Thou my wounded soul, because,
"I sinn'd against Thee have.
5 Those men who are mine enemies,
with evil me defame;
Their speeches are - "when will he die,
"and perish shall his name?"
6 And when they come to visit me,
they wholly speak in fraud;
But gather evil in their hearts,
and spread it then abroad.
[2 Part]
7 My foes against me all conspire
and whisper secretly,
Concerning me; to work my hurt,
they plot maliciously.
8 With joy they say, "There cleaves to him
"some bad disease or sore;
"Which mortifies and casts him down,
"that he shall rise no more."
9 Yea, ev'n my own familiar friend,
on whom I did rely;
Who eat my bread, yet hath his heel
against me lifted high.
10 But Thou, O LORD, be merciful
to me, I humbly pray;
And raise me up, that i their crimes
may properly repay.
11 By this I know assuredly,
I favour'd am by Thee;
That thou allowest not my foes
to triumph over me.
12 But Thou, in mine integrity,
dost always me sustain;
And settest me before thy face
for ever to remain.
13 The LORD, the God of Israel,
hath from eternity
Been bless'd, and shall be evermore:
AMEN, AMEN, say we. Scripture: Psalm 41 Languages: English

Heal thou my soul, because that I
Against thee sinned have.

When will the time come he shall die,
And perish shall his name?

Abroad them to impart.

7 All that me hate, against me they
Together whisper still:
Against me they imagine do
To me malicious ill.

Unto him cleaveth sore:
And seeing now he lyeth down,
He shall rise up no more.
9 Moreover my familiar friend,
On whom my trust I set,
His heel against me lifted up,
Who of my bread did eat.
10 But Lord me pity and me raise,
That I may them requite,

In me thou dost delight.
For o'er me triumphs not my foe,
12 And me, thou dost me stay
In mine integrity, and sett'st
Me thee before for aye.
13 Blest hath Jehovah, Israel's God,
From everlasting been,
And unto everlasting is,
Amen, yea, and Amen. Scripture: Psalm 41 Languages: English
