Lyrics:

Refrain: Happy are they who hope in God.

1. Happy are they who do not seek to walk the way of those who sin, but delight in the law of the Lord. Happy, happy are they.

2. Like a tree planted near water, there it blooms, like our God, whose leaves will not fade, but remain. Happy, happy are they.

3. The wicked, the lawless, who, like the chaff; our God, like wind, will drive away. God will keep watch over the just. Happy, happy are they.
