Man blest no doubt

Man blest no doubt
Who walk not out
In wicked men's affairs:
And stands no day
In sinners way
Nor sit in scorner's chairs

But hold e'en still
God's law in will
With all his heart's delight:
And will him use
On it to muse
To keep it day and night

He like shall be
The planted tree
Nigh set the water's course:
Which fruit in tide
Whole leaves abide
All prospers what he does

Not so, not so
The wicked do
Like dust or chaff they be:
Up-hoist by wind
As light as kind
From face of earth to see

Therefore these men
So wicked then
In judgment shall not stand:
Nor sinners be
In company
Of righteous men of hand

The Lord doth know
And will avow
Men's ways that are of God:
Where shall decay
The beaten way
Of wicked men so broad
