HOW BLESSED IS THE MAN
(a sanctified blues rendition of Psalm 1 !! )

 

E                                                          E                             
Don't walk with the wicked,  don't sit with the scoffer
E                                                                         E7
Don't stand with the sinner,  they've nothin' to offer

           A7
How blessed is the man,
           E
how blessed is the man
B7
Who puts his trust in
A7                          E           B7
the Law of the Lord

E                               E
He is like a tree planted by water
E                                                         E7
Bears fruit in it's season, it's leaf never withers (chorus)

                          Bridge:      A7      E      A7      F#7       B7

E                                    E
In all that he does the righteous will prosper
E                                                            E7
Not so for the wicked, they're headin' for disaster (chorus)

           A7
How blessed is the man,
           E
how blessed is the man
B7
Who puts his trust in
A7                          E           B7
the Law of the Lord    (repeat)

 

B7
Who puts his trust in
A7                          E           B7       E
the Law of the Lord
