Liberality Rewarded. Ps. 112.
1Happy is he that fears the Lord,
And follows his commands;
Who lends the poor without reward,
Or gives with liberal hands.
2As pity dwells within his breast
To all the sons of need,
So God shall answer his request
With blessings on his seed.
3No evil tidings shall surprise
His well-established mind;
His soul to God, his refuge, flies,
And leaves his fears behind.
4In times of general distress,
Some beams of light shall shine
To show the world his righteousness,
And give him peace divine.
