The Joy of the Godly
Dear friends, it is a joy
not to follow evil men's advice.
The Psalms tell us that and also
to stay away form those who are not nice.

Follow God's  path and He will always
help you stay on it - glory be!
Then you can meditate on things God wants you to,
being a part of the living tree.

You can be like the trees along the
river bank bearing much fruit.
During the whole year as seasons come
you have grown into God's root.

And you shall prosper as the years come and go
for you loved your Lord.
Praise Him totally!  You are wiser now
and that is a great reward.

But the sinners blow away as quickly as they take root
they dry up and die.
They will not be safe on judgement day
their sin is why.

For the Lord watches over the plans and\
paths of the godly in all ways.
But the paths of the godless lead to
only doom all of their days.
