Psalm 144 part 3

v.12-15 L. M. Grace above riches; or, The happy nation.

Happy the city where their sons, Like pillars round a palace set, And daughters, bright as polished stones, Give strength and beauty to the state.

Happy the country where the sheep, Cattle, and corn, have large increase; Where men securely work or sleep, Nor sons of plunder break the peace.

Happy the nation thus endowed, But more divinely blest are those On whom the all-sufficient God Himself with all his grace bestows.
