about

This song is a beautiful testimony of God's Word. Psalm One is as fundamental as it is profound to our daily success in this journey with Christ. When I struggle throughout my day I find this psalm quiets me, and allows me to evaluate what's going on inside my mind and my heart. God knows exactly what He's doing, His word is a plow. It finds the rocks and weeds and roots them out. God blessed me with the picture of the Levitical priesthood performing their daily tasks in the courtyard and the temple at the time of writing this song and I thought how fitting it was to draw the parallels of their holy service performing the maintenance of the altar, the bronze basin, the Menorah and the altar of incense and the table of showbread, all pictures of our relationship with Yeshua. We must focus and remember our daily tasks may not be in the temple, but we are the temple. And so we must seek to glorify our Heavenly Father in our thoughts, our passions, our motivations, and even in the mundane tasks we perform, He is there, refining and transforming our character more like His Son, Yeshua our Messiah.

lyrics

Psalm One (words and music by Will Spires)

Intro:
Shalom shalom shalom shalom, Shalom shalom shalom shalom (2X)

Verse:
Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked
Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked
Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked
Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked

Bridge:
And his delight is on the law of The LORD
And both day and night he meditates on His Law

Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked
Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked

Chorus:
And he shall be like a tree firmly planted
And he shall be like a tree firmly planted
By Living Water! By Living Water!

Turnaround:
Shalom shalom shalom shalom, Shalom shalom shalom shalom (Repeat)

Bridge2:
In Shemini the Cohanim were preparing
Of clean unclean the Holy and profane
Praise Yah we have a covering found in Yahshua
Our Passover Lamb rose from the grave!

Break:
Shalom shalom shalom shalom, Shalom shalom shalom shalom (hang and roll into bridge)

Bridge:
And his delight is on the law The LORD
And both day and night he meditates on His Law
Blessed is the man who does not walk in the
counsel of the wicked (2X)

Chorus:
And he shall be like a tree firmly planted
And he shall be like a tree firmly planted
By Living Water! Living Water! By Living Water! Living Water!
Shalom shalom shalom shalom, Shalom shalom shalom shalom (3x)
