Psalm 128

Setting

How blessed are all who fear the LORD,

Free Church of Scotland psalter · L.M.

The words

How blessed are all who fear the LORD, Who walk the way that he has shown. Success and blessing will be yours; You’ll eat the fruit that you have grown.

Your wife will be a fruitful vine; And round your table will be placed Your children like young olive shoots. Thus he who fears the LORD is blessed.

May you behold Jerus’lem’s good; From Zion may God’s blessing flow. Your children’s children may you see. May God on Isr’el peace bestow!

How is this list ordered?

Curated pairings come first — a tune a curator recorded against this text, with the fitness they recorded. A tune that merely shares the meter is listed as a tune in the same meter and never as a pairing.

Nothing here is ranked by popularity or use. The page reports what a curator recorded, not a verdict of its own.
