[Verse 1]
No shadow of shame
Will darken our faces
We will be radiant
Radiant with joy
In desperation I prayed
And the Lord, He listened
Would you see, could you taste?
Taste and see that the Lord is good
Taste and see that the Lord is good

[Chorus]
Come, my children, and listen
Listen to me
For I will teach you
The fear of the Lord is a perfectly good thing
Listen
Listen to me
For I will teach you
The fear of the Lord is a perfectly good thing

[Verse 2]
The eyes of the Lord
Watch over thе righteous
And His ears are turnеd
To your very lips
The Lord, He is close
So very close to the brokenhearted
And He rescues those who are crushed in their spirits
[Chorus]
Come, my children, and listen
Listen to me
For I will teach you
The fear of the Lord is a perfectly good thing
Listen
Listen to me
For I will teach you
The fear of the Lord is a perfectly good thing
Listen
Listen to me
For I will teach you
The fear of the Lord is a perfectly good thing
Listen
Listen to me
For I will teach you
The fear of the Lord is a perfectly good thing
