Music by Adam Reifsteck
Recording: John Angotti, vocals; Adam Reifsteck, MIDI sequencing
R./ Blessed are they who hope in the Lord, who hope in the Lord.
Blest are they who do not heed the council of the wicked
Nor walk in the way of the sinner, but delight in the law of the Lord. R./
They are like a tree planted near the flowing streams,
Which yields fruit in due season, and whose leaves never fade. R./
The wicked are like chaff driven by the wind;
They will not survive judgement, nor be in the assembly of the just. R./
