By the time we sang it in Sunday School we added verses of our own such as, \u201cWalking with my Savior, I shall not be moved.\u201d &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">David said in our text, \u201cbecause he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.\u201d Psalm 1 talks about the blessed man who delights in the law of the Lord being, \u201c\u2026like a tree planted by the rivers of water\u201d (V. 3). In Revelation 22:1-2 we have a beautiful picture of a river and a tree, \u201cAnd he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.\u201d&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">David said that he should not be moved because God was at his right hand.

Now we look at a screen up front. There was a day when someone who slipped in late would be handed an open hymnal. Hymnals were often shared with the person next to you.
