Do not let evildoers worry you
Or envy those bent on crime
For their fate's to be cut down;
They will wither in due time
Delight yourself and trust in God;
Feed on His faithfulness
And with the desires of your heart,
You will find that you are blessed
Commit your way to the Lord
And He shall make it be,
Bring forth your righteousness
And justice for all to see
Rest in God, with patience;
Don't fret or be alarmed
When the wicked seem to prosper -
Rage and worry will only cause harm
The ones who shall inherit all the earth
Are those who meekly serve the Lord
Evildoers will be cut off;
The wicked shall be no more
The righteous shall delight
In an abundance of peace;
The wicked plot against the just
And gnashes at them with their teeth
The Lord laughs at those who draw
Their swords and bend their bows
Towards the poor and the upright
For God knows they'll be brought down low
Their weapons and arms shall break
They shall be pierced by their own sword
But the righteous will be sustained
By the everlasting Lord
The righteous shall not hunger in famine
Or in time of evil, be ashamed
But the enemies of God shall perish;
Into smoke they will vanish away
The wicked takes and keeps
But the merciful gives with joy
Those blessed by God shall inherit the earth
Those cursed, shall be destroyed
The Lord takes delight
To order the steps of good men
Though they may stumble
The Lord upholds with His hand
Through all of my life, I've yet to see
The righteous forsaken, distressed
Or begging for bread, for God is merciful;
Even their descendants are blessed
Depart from evil and do good
And dwell forevermore
Together with His saints
Who love justice, as does the Lord
The righteous speak words of wisdom;
The law of God, guides his way
The Lord will not let the wicked succeed
With their intentions to condemn and slay
Trust in the Lord and keep His commands
You will be honoured to possess the land
Though the wicked flourish like a green tree,
They will be destroyed, just you wait and see
Note the blameless and upright man
Their future is salvation and peace
God is their strength and deliverer
Because they trusted Him and believed
