Meditations on Psalm 1

“Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, or stand in the way of sinners, or sit in the seat of mockers. But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on His law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers. Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.”
- Psalm 1 (NIV)

Your Word is what I live for,
Your law is my delight,
I want Your word to change me,
So I reflect on it day and night.

I want to be fruitful, oh Lord
To be a tree planted by water
To be prosperous and holy
And never shall I wither

And I will not follow evil men’s advice
Condone wicked actions,
Or laugh at someone’s plight
For my heart’s desire is to pursue You alone
And be blessed because You watch over me.

Those who choose the path of darkness
Won’t stand in the judgment
Their lives get blown away
As they are cast away from the light

Their ways won’t last forever
The pleasures of sin fade quickly
So I choose to follow You, my God
And go where You will lead me.
