Paraphrase of Psalm 128 by hymnwriter / lyricist David Mowbray: "Bless all who trust in God"

from GLORY TO GOD (Westminster John Knox Press, 2013):
Bless all who trust in God and walk within God's ways;
bless every soul whose happiness springs from the Lord's own praise!

Let families be strong and sparkle bright as wine;
let partners and let children thrive and flourish like the vine!

And since we may not boast such joys are ours by right,
teach us, good Lord, to take your gifts with thanks and with delight.
TEXT -- The Jubilate Group (1990).
