Bliss of the Blessed

Read:  Psalm 10 / Proverbs 8 / Deuteronomy 23 / Rev. 17

Psalm 10:17 LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear.
Proverbs 8:34 Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors. 
Deuteronomy 23:5 The LORD thy God would not hearken unto Balaam; but the LORD thy God turned the curse into a blessing unto thee, because the LORD thy God loved thee. 
Revelation 17:14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called.

The Lord has heard the heart's desire
Of those who humbly seek His face. 
He lifts their souls up from the mire
Of sin and blesses them with grace.

We once were cursed who now are blest;
Our heart with bliss to Jesus sings!
He is our Refuge and our Rest,
The Lord of lords and King of kings!
