A Psalm of David
Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: O Lord, thou dost me search and know Lyrics: 1 O Lord, Thou dost me search and know:
2 Thou know'st my sitting down;
My rising up, and all my tho'ts,
to Thee far off are known.
3 Thou compassest my path and bed,
and knowest all my ways:
4 And ev'ry word that moves my tongue,
O LORD, thine eye surveys.
5 Thou hast best me round about,
and on me laid thy hand.
6 Such knowledge wondrous is to me,
too high to understand.
7 Where shall I from thy spirit go;
or from thy presence fly?
8 If heav'n I climb, lo Thou art There;
There if in hell I lie.
9 If morning wings I take, and dwell
where utmost sea coasts are;
10 Ev'n there thy hand shall lead me on,
and thy right hand me bear.
11 Or if I say, the darkness shall
conceal me from thy sight;
The darkest night shall then to Thee,
around me, all be light.
12 For darkness darkens not to Thee;
but night as day shines clear:
Thick darkness and the shining light
to Thee alike appear.
[2 Part]
13 Because thou hast possest my reigns,
and safely cover'd me
Within my tender mother's womb;
14 my praise shall be of Thee;
For fearfully and wondrously,
Thou didst my frame compose;
Thy works in me are marvellous;
and that my soul well knows.
15 When first I was in secret made,
my substance Thou didst know;
while I most curiously was wrought,
as in dark caves below.
16 Thine eyes my shapeless substance saw
and written in thy book
Were all my members tho' not made,
which after fashion took.
17 How precious also to my soul
are thy sweet thoughts become?
O God, how numerous they grow,
how vast their growing sum?
18 If I should number them, their sum
more than the sand would be:
And still whenever I awake
I present am with Thee.
[3 Part]
19 O God, Thou surely wilt them slay,
who wicked persons are:
And therefore all ye men of blood,
depart from me afar.
20 For they against Thee wickedly
speak out with tongues profane:
And they who are thine enemies,
take thy great name in vain.
21 JEHOVAH! hate I not all those,
who hatred show to Thee?
And those who up against The rise,
am I not griev'd to see?
22 Yea I abhor them utterly,
who up against Thee rise;
And all who show themselves thy foes,
I count mine enemies.
23 O gracious God, I beg Thee make
a thorough search of me;
And know my heart, me strictly try,
my thoughts within me see.
24 And see if any way of sin
in me indulged be;
And in thy way to endless bliss
for ever lead Thou me.
Scripture: Psalm 139
A Psalm of David
O Lord, tho' with me Thou wast wroth
Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Lord, tho' with me Thou wast wroth
I'll praises give to Thee;
For now thy wrath is turn'd away,
and Thou dost comfort me.
2 Behold! God my salvation is;
trust, and not fear, will I;
Because our JAH, JEHOVAH is
my strength and melody.
He is my full salvation too:
3 so waters plenteously
Out of salvation's living wells
shall ye draw forth with joy.
4 Praise ye the LORD, call on his name:
and to the people show
His doings: that his name's extoll'd,
declare abroad also.
5 O sing ye to the LORD,for He
things excellent has done;
Yea thro' the universal earth
the same is fully known.
6 Cry out and shout aloud O ye
who on mount Zion dwell;
For mighty is THE HOLY ONE,
in Thee, O Israel.
Scripture: Isaiah 12
O Lord, tho' with me Thou wast wroth
A Psalm of David
Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: O Lord, to thee I call aloud Lyrics: 1 O Lord, to Thee I call aloud!
O make Thou haste to me:
And hearken to my earnest voice,
Now while I cry to Thee!
2 O let my pray'r before thy face
as fragrant incense rise;
The lifting of my hands accept
as ev'ning sacrifice.
3 O let a constant watch before
my hasty mouth, O LORD;
And of my lips keep Thou the door.
against each evil word.
4 Let not my heart incline to ill;
nor let me ever share
With evil men in evil deeds;
nor on their dainties fare.
5 Me, let the righteous kindly smite,
and that I'll kindly take;
Their just reproofs shall fail so soft,
My head they shall not break.
But as an oyl of great esteem,
I shall it highly prize;
And in requital pray for them
in their calamities.
6 And when by judges they shall be
in stony places cast;
My kind words they shall hear, and they
shall sweet be to their taste.
7 About the grave's wide open mouth,
our bones are scatter'd round,
As wood, which hewers cut and cleave,
lies scatter'd on the ground.
8 But O JEHOVAH, Lord, to Thee
directed are mine eyes:
My soul, O leave not destitute,
On thee my hope relies.
9 O keep me from the hands of those
who snares have laid for me;
And from the secret nets of those
who work iniquity.
10 Into the nets which they have set
shall the ungodly fall;
While I, for whom they were prepar'd,
pass and escape them all. Scripture: Psalm 141
A Psalm of David
A Psalm or Song of David
Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: O mighty God, hear thou the voice Lyrics: 1 O Mighty GOD, hear Thou the voice,
I utter in my pray'r;
Preserve my life from cruel foes
and free me from their fear.
2 From secret plots of wicked men
O hide me carefully;
From insurrections of all those
who work iniquity.
3 Who their ill tongues in malice whet
and sharpen them like swords,
And set as arrows in their bows
to shoot out bitter words.
4 That they in secrecy may shoot
at those who upright are;
Yea suddenly against them shoot
and strike them without fear.
5 In ill designs excite themselves,
consulting how to lay
Their snares in utmost secrecy;
"and who shall see," they say.
6 Injurious evils they search out,
and search with utmost art:
Most inward is their plotting thought,
and deep their subtil heart.
7 But GOD will arrows shoot at them,
and wound them suddenly.
8 Yea their own tongue shall them confound,
and all who see them, fly.
9 Yea all around shall fear, and shall
the work of GOD declare;
For wisely they shall understand,
that these his doings are.
10 The just shall in the LORD rejoyce,
and safe in Him rely;
Yea all of upright heart shall sure
exult in Him on high. Scripture: Psalm 64
A Psalm or Song of David
Mictam, or a golden Psalm of David
Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: O mighty God, preserve thou me Lyrics: 1 O Mighty God, preserve thou me,
for upon thee I rest.
2 "Thou art my Lord," thou O my soul,
has to the LORD profess'd.
3 My goodness reaches not to thee;
but to the saints, th' upright
On earth, who are the excellent,
in whom is my delight.
4 Who hast'n a strange one* to adore,
their sorrows shall abound;
Their blood-drink offerings I'll not pour,
nor names my lips shall sound.
5 The LORD the only portion is
Of mine inheritance;
And of my cup; and of my lot
secures the maintenace.
6 The lines that fallen are to me,
in pleasant places are;
And goodly is the heritage
that falleth to my share.
7 I will JEHOVAH humbly bless,
who counsels me aright,
So that my reins do me instruct
in seasons of the night.
8 Before me I the LORD have set
as present evermore:
Because he is at my right hand,
I shall not slide therefore.
9 Therefore my heart rejoyceth much,
my glory's glad withal;
Moreover also dwell in hope
my flesh securely shall:
10 Because thou wilt not leave my soul
in death's estate to be;
Nor suffer wilt THINE HOLY ONE
corruption there to see.
11 Thou wilt me shew the path of life,
which to thy presence goes;
Where joy in fulness is, and where
pure pleasure ever flows. Scripture: Psalm 16
Mictam, or a golden Psalm of David
O not to us, Lord, not to us
Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O not to us, LORD, not to us,
but all the glory take
To thine own name, both for thy truth
and sov'reign mercy's sake.
2 Why should the taunting heathen cry,
"where is the God they own?"
3 Our God in heav'n sits high enthron'd,
and what he pleas'd hath done.
4 Their idols silver are and gold;
men's handy work are they.
5 Mouths have they, but they cannot speak;
and. eyes, but cannot see.
Ears have they, but they cannot hear;
noses, but savour not:
Have hands and feet, but cannot move;
nor murmur in their throat.
8 Such senseless flocks are they themselves
who did these idols frame;
And such are all who to them pray,
and put their trust in them.
9 O Isr'el, trust ye in the LORD;
your help and shield is He:
10 O Aaron's house, trust in the LORD;
your shield and help He'l be.
11 Who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD;
He is your help and shield.
12 The LORD hath mindful been of us;
his blessing He will yield.
The house of Isra'l bless He will;
the house of Aaron bless,
13 He will bless all who fear the LORD,
the greater and the less.
14 To you JEHOVAH will, to you
and to your children add:
15 You are the blessed of the LORD,
that heav'n and earth has made.
16 The heav'n's of heav'ns are all the LORD's.
where He his glory shows:
But ev'n on Adam's offspring He
the spacious earth bestows.
17 Not any praise to JAH on high
can from the dead-ascend;
No praise from those who to the place
of silence deep descend.
18 But we th' eternal JAH will bless
who yet alive are seen,
From this time forth for evermore,
sing HALLELUJAH then!
Scripture: Psalm 115
O not to us, Lord, not to us
A Psalm of David, when the Ziphims came, and said to Saul "Doth not David hide himself with us?"
Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: O save me in thy name, O God Lyrics: 1 O save me by thy name, O GOD,
and judge me by thy pow'r.
2 O GOD, now to my pray'r give ear,
and hear in this sad hour.
3 For strangers whom I never wrong'd,
yet up against me rise:
My soul, oppressors seek, who GOD
set not before their eyes. (Selah.)
4 Lo GOD my help, the Lord with those
who do my soul sustain:
5 My foes he'll justly recompence,
Them in thy truth restrain.
6 Then I to Thee shall sacrifice
With grateful willingness:
Yea LORD, because 'tis good, I will
with praise thy name confess.
7 For thou hast me delivered
from all adversities;
And may mine eyes see my desire
upon mine enemies. Scripture: Psalm 54
A Psalm of David, when the Ziphims came, and said to Saul "Doth not David hide himself with us?"
O sing a new song to the Lord
Appears in 25 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O sing a new song to the LORD;
for wonders he hath done,
His right hand and his holy arm,
the victory have won.
2 His great salvation to the world,
JEHOVAH hath made known;
And to the nations all abroad,
his righteousness hath shown.
3 His mercy to his Isra'ls house
and truth, remembers He;
And now the ends of all the earth
Our God's salvation see.
4 O, to JEHOVAH all the earth,
make ye a joyful noise;
With raised voices shout aloud,
sing praises and rejoyce.
5 With tuneful harps, and hymns of praise,
now to JEHOVAH sing.
6 With trumpets and loud cornets shout,
before the LORD the King.
7 Let the sea rise, and roar for joy,
and all that is therein;
The world and all who therein dwell,
let them be joyful seen.
8 Let the floods clap their lifted hands,
their waves to praise employ;
And let the mountains spring aloft,
as leaping all for joy;
9 Before the LORD: for lo he comes
the earth, as judge to try;
With justice He'll the people judge,
the world with equity.
Scripture: Psalm 98
O sing a new song to the Lord
O sing ye loudly to the Lord
Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O sing ye loudly to the LORD
new songs of sacred mirth;
O sing ye praises to the LORD,
all people through the earth,
2 O cheerfully sing to the LORD,
and bless his sacred name;
And his salvation ev'ry day
to all the world proclaim.
3 His glory in Himself and works,
among the nations show;
His works that are most marvellous
let all the people know.
4 For great, JEHOVAH is indeed,
and greatly prais'd to be;
Above all GODS to be ador'd,
and to be fear'd is He.
5 For of the heathen ail the Gods*
vain and base idols are;
But by the LORD, whom we adore,
the heav'ns created were.
6 Glory and comely majesty
appear before his face,
Excelling pow'r with beauty join'd
within his holy place.
7 O to the LORD ye people yield,
and all of ev'ry tribe;
All glory to JEHOVAH yield,
and mighty pow'r ascribe.
8 The glory to JEHOVAH give,
that to his name is due;
Come ye into his courts, and bring
an offering with you.
9 Worship the LORD in his abode,
his beauteous, holy place;
And let the universal earth
tremble before his face.
10 Thro' nations say, JEHOVAH reigns,
the world confirm'd shall be;
It shall not move, but righteously
the people judge will He.
11 O let the heav'ns at this be glad,
and let the earth rejoyce;
The sea and fulness of the same
with roaring make a noise.
12 O let the fields and all therein
with joyful triumph sing;
Then all the trees throughout the woods
with shouts of joy shall ring.
13 Before the LORD; for lo He comes,
He comes the earth to try;
He'll judge his people with his truth,
the world with equity.
Scripture: Psalm 96
O sing ye loudly to the Lord
O sing ye HALLELUJAH now
Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O sing ye HALLELUJAH now,
And praise JEHOVAH's holy name;
O all ye servants of the LORD,
His praises all abroad proclaim.
2 Ye who within the house do stand,
Wherein the LORD has his abode;
And in the court-yards of his house,
Who is by covenant our God.
3 Sing HALLELUJAH; for the LORD
Is good: sing praises to his name;
For it is sweet to be employ'd
His praife in singing to proclaim.
4 For the eternal JAH hath chose,
Jacob for his propriety;
And his peculiar treasure hath,
He taken Israel to be.
5 For well we know, the LORD is great,
And that this sov'reign Lord of ours
Transcends all that are called Gods,
And reigns o'er all created powers.
6 In heav'n and earth the LORD hath done,
Whatever his own mind did please;
In the deep caverns of the earth,
And in the great and swelling seas.
7 From the wide surface of the earth
He makes the vapours to arise;
He makes the lightning for the rain,
And winds brings from his treasuries.

8 Egypt's first born, both man and beast
9 He slew: and wondrous tokens He
On Pharaoh and his servants sent,
O Egypt in the midst of thee.
10 Great nations smote, great kings he slew,
11 Sihon, who was of Hashhbon king,
And Og of Bashan; and to nought
All Canaan's kingdoms he did bring.
12 And gave their land an heritage,
To his own people Israel.
13 O LORD, eternal is thy name,
LORD, endless thy memorial,
14 JEHOVAH will his people judge,
And for his servants turn again.
15 The heathen idols silver are
And gold; the handy work of men.
16 Mouths have they, yet they cannot speak;
And they have eyes, but never saw;
17 Ears have they, yet they nothing hear;
Their mouths no breath can ever draw.
18 Such senseless flocks are they themselves,
Who did these senseless idols frame;
And such are all who to them pray,
And put their confidence in them.
19 O house of Isr'el bless the LORD:
The LORD bless--who of Aaron's are:
20 The LORD, O house of Levi bless:
The LORD bless ye, the LORD who fear.
21 From Zion-hill his sacred seat,
O let JEHOVAH blessed be;
Who dwells within Jerusalem:
O sing, sing HALLELUJAH ye. Scripture: Psalm 135
O sing ye HALLELUJAH now
