Who tastes real happiness?
supported, blessed and strong
to stand against the throng
enticing to do wrong.
Who tastes real happiness?
He will delight to read
each day in God’s Word feed,
and meditate, take heed.
Who tastes real happiness?
he will bring forth good fruit,
in God himself his root,
established, prosperous shoot.
Who tastes real happiness?
not those like dry dust blown,
no Saviour sought, alone
they come before God’s throne.
Who tastes real happiness?
those Jesus washes white
through faith, now counted right,
kept safe within his sight.
Tune: 66 66 iambic eg St Cecilia by Leighton G Hayne
