Tenor solo:
Walk not in the counsel of the wicked,
neither stand in the way of sinners,
nor sit in the seat of the scoffers

But love the LORD, and the law of the LORD,
Love the LORD and the Law of the LORD,
The one who so thinks and
day and night and delights:
Blessed is that man

He will be like a tree planted by the waters
  whose fruit is sweet and the leaves are green
 *which bears fruit in its season, and its leaves do not wither*
In everything he does he prospers

He will be like a tree planted by the waters
 *which bears fruit in its season, and its leaves do not wither*
  whose fruit is sweet and the leaves are green
In everything he does he prospers
