The Psalm Project's song is a musical setting of Psalm 1, contrasting the blessed life of those who delight in God's law with the fate of the wicked. The lyrics emphasize meditating on Scripture day and night, resulting in spiritual fruitfulness and stability like a tree planted by water. The wicked are compared to chaff blown away, unable to stand in judgment. The song encourages believers to reject worldly counsel and find their delight in God's Word, promising that the Lord watches over the righteous while the way of the wicked will perish.

Blessed is the man who does not heed the counsel of this world

Blessed is the man who does not conform to worldly ways


For his delight is in the law of the LORD

And on His Word he meditates day and night


And he shall be like a tree by streams of water

That yields abundant fruit in every season

And his leaves shall never, never wither

And everything he does shall prosper

And everything he does shall prosper

And everything he does shall prosper


But the wicked are not so

For they are like the chaff the wind blows away

And the wicked shall not stand in the judgment

For the LORD knows the way of the righteous

But the evil ways of man shall pass away

Shall pass away

They?ll pass away

Forever
