Isaac Watts - Psalm XXXII: Happy the ManIsaac Watts - Psalm XXXII: Happy the Man
Work rating: Low


Happy the man to whom his God         No more imputes his sin, But, washed in the Redeemer`s blood,         Hath made his garments clean. Happy beyond expression he         Who debts are thus discharged; And from the guilty bondage free,         He feels his soul enlarged. His spirit hates deceit and lies,         His words are all sincere; He guards his heart, he guards his eyes,         To keep his conscience clear. While I my inward guilt suppressed,         No quiet could I find; Thy wrath lay burning in my breast,         And racked my tortured mind. Then I confessed my troubled thoughts,         My secret sins revealed; Thy pard`ning grace forgave my faults,         Thy grace my pardon sealed. This shall invite thy saints to pray;         When like a raging flood Temptations rise, our strength and stay         Is a forgiving God.
