Verse 1 (Psalm 37:1–6)

Don’t be troubled by the wicked’s gain,

Like grass they fade, like smoke they wane.

Trust in the Lord and do what’s right,

Dwell in the land, shine with His light.

Chorus (Psalm 37:3–7)

Delight yourself in the Lord your God,

And He will give what your heart longs for.

Commit your way and trust in Him,

He will act — just wait and sing.

Verse 2 (Psalm 37:8–11)

Let go of anger, turn from wrath,

For evil fades, but peace will last.

The meek shall dwell in God’s good land,

They rest forever in His hand.

Bridge (Psalm 37:23–26)

The steps of the righteous are led by the Lord,

He holds their hand, though they may fall.

I’ve never seen the faithful forsaken —

God is good, He gives to all.

Final Chorus (Psalm 37:27–40)

Turn from evil, follow peace,

God preserves His own with ease.

He is stronghold in the storm,

Trust in Him — forevermore.
