1. How well God must like you-
you don't hang out at Sin Saloon,
you don't slink along Dead-End Road,
you don't go to Smart-Mouth College.
2-3. Instead you thrill to GOD's Word,
you chew on Scripture day and night.
You're a tree replanted in Eden,
bearing fresh fruit every month,
Never dropping a leaf,
always in blossom.
4-5. You're not at all like the wicked,
who are mere windblown dust-
Without defense in court,
unfit company for innocent people.
6. GOD charts the road you take.
The road they take is Skid Row.
(Psalm 1 from "The Message" bible)
