Come Thou Fount
Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)
The Psalmist begins “Blessed is the man.”
The word used here for man (ish) is used here to portray a representative example of a godly person.
The word “Blessed” is the Hebrew word ashre. This word is used to describe one’s state of being, filled with overwhelming joy, happiness, and prosperity. None of which are based on our outward circumstances, but on the fact that we belong to Yahweh, and our lives are eternally impacted by an intimate relationship with Him.
The Greek equivalent to this word is makarios. Our Savior used it in His Sermon on The Mount.
Matthew 5:3–11 ESV
3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4 “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. 5 “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. 6 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied. 7 “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy. 8 “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. 9 “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. 10 “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 “Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account.
