Do Not Fret (Psalm 37)

Adapted from the words found in Psalm 37 verses 1-6 and 27-29, this Scripture Song brings comfort and assurance that God will ultimately triumph in this war against sin and evil. These verses encourage us to trust in God, to always do what's right, and to stop fretting when the wicked appear to be winning the battle. For as verse 29 says: "the righteous will inherit the land and dwell in it forever."

I love this Psalm by David and encourage you to read and meditate on the entire chapter. Here is a link to this chapter as translated by the NKJV:

Lyrics:
Do not fret because of evil doers,
or envy those who do you wrong,
for like the grass that's cut they soon will wither,
and like green plants they'll fade away.

Put your trust in God and do good,
dwell safely and enjoy the land.
Delight yourself always in the Lord,
He'll give you the desires of your heart.

Commit your ways unto the Lord our God,
and put your trust in Him today.
For He will make your righteousness and judgment
shine brighter than the noonday sun.

Turn away from evil and do good,
then you will always live at peace.
The Lord, loves those who practice showing justice.
He won't forsake His faithful saints.

They will be protected always,
but wicked ones will be cut off.
The righteous will inherit the land,
and there they will abide evermore.

So put your trust in God and do good,
dwell safely and enjoy the land.
Delight yourself always in the Lord,
He'll give you the desires of your heart.
