They Are Blest Who Are ForgivenWords: Anonymous, based on portions of Psalm 32. Music: 1 They are blest who are forgiven,
to whom God imputes no sin
[Who go to the Eternal
and confess to him their sins]
Whose iniquity is covered,
whom the Lord does instruct!
Saying I will direct you
in the way that you should go.
2 Many sorrows have the wicked,
[Who know not the way of God.]
Be not as mules or horses,
Which are held by bridles strong;
But be glad in the Eternal,
And rejoice all you just;
Shout for joy all you upright;
In whose spirit is no guile.
3 Day and night God's hand was on me,
And I groaned till I confessed.
My sins I laid before Him
Quickly He forgave them all.
Ev'ry godly one shall pray thus,
While the Lord may be found;
So be glad all you upright;
All you righteous shout for joy.
