The Happiness of the Godly, and Misery of the Ungodly

Hymnal: PHSS1758 #PIa (1758) First Line: O blessed man that walks not in Lyrics: 1 O blessed man who walks not in the counsel of ill men, Nor stands within the sinners way; nor scoffers seat sits in. 2 But on JEHOVAH's written law he places his delight; And in his law he meditates, with pleasure day and night. 3 For he is like a goodly tree by rivers planted near; Which timely yields its fruit, whose leaf shall ever green appear: And all he does shall prosper still. 4 Th' ungodly are not so; But like the chaff which by the wind is driven to and fro. 5 Therefore in judgement shall not stand such as ungodly are; Nor in th' assembly of the just shall sinful men appear. 6 Because the way of righteous men The LORD approves and knows; Whereas the way of evil men to sure destruction goes.

A Psalm of David

Hymnal: PHSS1758 #PXLI (1758) First Line: O bless'd is he who does the poor Lyrics: 1 O bless'd is he that does the poor consider and relieve! The LORD deliv'rance will to him in time of trouble give. 2 The LORD will keep and make him live; on earth he bless'd shall be; Thou wilt not give him to the will of any enemy. 3 Upon the bed of languishing the LORD will him sustain; Yea thou wilt easy make his bed when sick or seiz'd with pain. 4 I said, "JEHOVAH now to me "thy tender grace I crave "Heal Thou my wounded soul, because, "I sinn'd against Thee have. 5 Those men who are mine enemies, with evil me defame; Their speeches are--"when will he die, "and perish shall his name?" 6 And when they come to visit me, they wholly speak in fraud; But gather evil in their hearts, and spread it then abroad. [2 Part] 7 My foes against me all conspire and whisper secretly, Concerning me; to work my hurt, they plot maliciously. 8 With joy they say, "There cleaves to him "some bad disease or sore; "which mortifies and casts him down, "that he shall rise no more." 9 Yea, ev'n my own familiar friend, on whom I did rely; Who eat my bread, yet hath his heel against me lifted high. 10 But Thou, O LORD, be merciful to me, I humbly pray; And raise me up, that i their crimes may properly repay. 11 By this I know assuredly, I favour'd am by Thee; That thou allowest not my foes to triumph over me 12 But Thou, in mine integrity, dost always me sustain; And settest me before thy face for ever to remain. 13 The LORD, the God of Israel, hath from eternity Been bless'd, and shall be ever more: AMEN, AMEN, say we.

O come and let us to the Lord

Hymnal: PHSS1758 #PXCV (1758) Lyrics: 1 O come, and let us to the LORD, lift up a joyful voice; And to our rock of safety shout, and make triumphant noise. 2 Before Him let us early come with thankfulness and praise; And with the joyful noise of hymns aloud our voices raise. 3 Because this God JEHOVAH is, exceeding great and high; And a great King above all GODS, in power and majesty. 4 All the deep caverns in the earth, are in his mighty hand; The mountains high in all their strength are his, and by Him stand. 5 To Him the spacious sea belongs, because He made the same; And all the land abroad is his, for it his hand did frame. [2 Part] 6 O come, and let us all adore, bow down, and on Him call; Come, let us kneel before the LORD, the maker of us all. 7 Because He is our, God, and we his pasture's people are; And of his hand the sheep, if ye to day his voice will hear; 8 'O let not, as at Meribah, 'hardness your hearts possess, 'As in the day of Massah they 'did in the wilderness. 9 'Where your presumptuous ancestors, 'too boldly tempted Me; 'Where they me prov'd, and where my works 'their wondring eyes did see. 10 'Forty years long I grieved was 'with that rebellious race; 'And said, this people err in heart, 'and will not know my ways. 11 'So that to them I sware in wrath, 'then kindling in my breast; 'That they should never enter in 'my happy place of rest.

O fairest Thou of all the fair

Hymnal: PHSS1758 #SSVI (1758) Lyrics: Daughters of Jerusalem: 1 O fairest Thou of all the fair! if Thou canst tell us, doe, Whither thy souls' Belov'd is gone, that we may seek Him too. The Church: 2 My Love is to his garden gone, down to the beds of spice; to feed in gardens, and collect his flowers of lillies choice. 3 I'm m Beloved's, He is mine; our hearts in one agree; And feed among the lilly-flowers with great delight doth He. Christ: 4 O Thou my Love, as Tirza fair, fair as Jerusalem, Majestick as a marching host we see with banners stream. 5 O turn away thine eyes from Me! they have Me overborn. Thine hair is like a flock of goats which Gilead's mount adorn. 6 Thy teeth are like a flock of sheep up from the washing gone; Whereof ev'n ev'ry one bare twins, and destitute is none. 7 So gracefully within thy locks thy temples formed are, That to pomgranates in their bloom I may them well compare. 8 Tho' round thee there are threescore Queens, and concubines fourscore, And of fair virgins more there are than can be number'd o're; 9 Yet is my dove my perfect one, the only one to Me; Yea of the mother that her bare the choicest one is she. The daughters, as they her beheld, admir'd, and call'd her bless'd; The queens and concubines were charm'd and thus her praise confess'd; 10 "O, how she looks forth like the morn, "fair as the moon on high, "Clear as the sun, majestick as "an host whose banners fly! The Church: 11 To the nut-garden I went down the valley fruits to see; See if the vines did bud, if bloom did the pomgranate tree. 12 And then mu soul quick mounted me, before I was aware, As on the char'ots of those who my willing people are. Daughters of Jerusalem: 13 But O thou lovely Shulamite, gone to thy secret place; O turn, make haste and come again, that WE may view thy face! Christ: What see you in the Shulamite? what like her has there been? Daughters of Jerusalem: She's like the choir of angel-hosts at Mahanaim seen! Scripture: Song of Solomon 6 Languages: English

Hymnal: PHSS1758 #PLXX (1758) First Line: O God, from my distress Lyrics: 1 O God, from my distress, make haste to set me free: O LORD, with speed do Thou afford thy saving help to me. 2 Let them who seek my soul, be made to blush with shame; And with confusion turned back who make my hurt their aim. 3 They shall be turned back, with shame confounded be; As just recompence to them for their insulting me. 4 Let all who seek thy face be glad and joy in Thee; Who thy salvation love, say still, "GOD magnified be." 5 But I'm distressed, O GOD: make haste to me, I pray; For Thou my help and saviour art, O LORD, make no delay.

[2 Part] 8 Of joy and gladness make Thou me to hear again the voice; That so the bones which Thou hast broke may yet again rejoyce. 9 From the beholding of my sins O turn away thy face; And all my vie iniquities O do Thou quite efface. 10 Clean heart O GOD, in me create; renew a spirit right In me: (11) and cast me not away out of thy happy sight: Nor thy Pure Spirit from me take. 12 Restore the joy to me, Of thy salvation, and uphold me with thy spirit free. 13 Then will I teach thy ways to those who work iniquity; And happily shall sinners then, converted be to Thee. [3 Part] 14 O GOD! of my salvation God! free me from guilt of blood; And of thy saving righteousness my tongue shall sing aloud. 15 Lord, open Thou my lips, and forth my mouth thy praise shall sing: 16 For Thou desir'st not sacrifice; or I the same would bring: Burnt off'rings Thou delight'st not in. 17 Of GOD the sacrifice A spirit broke: a contrite heart, GOD Thou wilt not despise. 18 In thy good pleasure, O do good to Zion bounteously: The walls of thy Jerusalem, O build Thou up on high. 19 The sacrifice of righteousness shall pleas Thee then; and they Burnt off'rings, whole burnt off'rings, calves, will on thine altar lay.

Michtam of David, when the Plilistines took him in Gath

Hymnal: PHSS1758 #PLVI (1758) First Line: O God, have mercy upon me Lyrics: 1 O GOD, have mercy upon me; for men, would me devour' They fighting with me constantly, oppress me with their pow'r. 2 Mine enemies continually, to swallow me, devise; And they are many, O most high, who up against me rise. 3 But whensoever I'm afraid, or terror seizes me; Then I repair to Thee my strength, and rest my self on Thee. 4 In GOD his faithful word I'll praise: O GOD, I'll trust in Thee; And then I will not be afraid what flesh can do to me. 5 They daily wrest my words to speak a sens I never meant; And to bring injuries on me, their tho'ts are wholly bent. 6 In close assemblies they combine, and wicked projects lay: They watch my steps, and lie in wait to make my soul their prey. 7 Shall they by all their wickedness escape thy dreadful frown? O GOD, Thou wilt in anger cast those wicked people down. [2 Part] 8 Of all my wand'rings to and fro, Thou hast the reck'ning took; Into thy bottle put my tears: are they not in thy book? 9 Then turned back shall be my foes; when I cry out to Thee: For this I know assuredly, that God will be for me. 10 In GOD I'll praise his faithful word, which He fulfils always; His word which he to me performs, I in the Lord will praise; 11 In GOD I trust, and will not fear what flesh can do to me. 12 Thy vows upon me are, O GOD: I'll render praise to Thee. 13 For Thou hast sav'd my soul from death, when it was near to me: And wilt Thou not uphold my feet, and keep from falling free? That I before the face of GOD may walk in uprightness! And in the light of those who live continually Thee bless. Scripture: Psalm 56 Languages: English

A Song of Psalm of David

Hymnal: PHSS1758 #PCVIII (1758) First Line: O God, my heart is fixed, I'll sing Lyrics: 1 O GOD, my heart is fix'd; I'll sing, yea with my glory praise: 2 Awake up psaltery and harp; my self I'll early raise. 3 Thy praise, O LORD, will I proclaim among the people round; Among the nations I with songs thy praises will resound. 4 For thy benignity is great, ev'n to the htav'ns on high; And thy eternal truth extends, up to the cloudy sky. 5 Above the starry firmament exalt thy self, O GOD; And o'er the spacious earth display thy glory all abroad. 6 That those who thy beloved are may quite deliver'd be; O do Thou save with thy right hand, and answer give to me. 7 GOD in his holiness hath spoke, and I'll triumph with joy; Shechem divide, and Succoth's vale, measure for mine will I. 8 Gilead is mine, Manasseh mine, who both espouse my cause; Ephraim is of my strength the head, and Judah gives my laws. 9 Moab I will my washpot make; my shoe o'er Edom fling; And over Palestina's land I will in triumph sing. 10 Who will me to the city lead so strongly fortify'd? And who will into Edom's land me and my army guide? 11 Didst Thou not cast us off, O GOD? yet still we look to Thee: Wilt Thou not with our armies go, and GOD our leader be? 12 O from our trouble give us help; for man's help vain is known: 13 Thro' GOD we shall do valiantly; and He'll our foes tread down.

O God, our fathers oft have told

Hymnal: PHSS1758 #PXLIV (1758) Lyrics: 1 O God, our fathers oft have told in our attentive ears; Thy wondrous works wrought in their days, and elder time than theirs. 2 Thy hand did drive the heathen out, but plant them in their place: Thou didst the heathen people waste, but thine thou didst increase. 3 For 'twas not their own sword, to them the land's possession gave; Now was the strength of their own arm the pow'r that did them save: But Thy right hand, thine arm, the light that shined from thy face; Because on them thou pleased wast thy favour free to place. 4 Thou art my king, O might GOD; deliverances command For Jacob in his deep distress, who needs thy mighty hand. 5 Thro' Thee, as with an horn, we will push down our enemies: We thro' the name will tread down those who up against us rise. 6 Because it is not in my bow that I affiance have; Nor is it any sword of mine that ever can me save. 7 But thou hast sav'd us from our foes, and haters put to shame. 8 In GOD we all the day triumph, and ever praise thy name. [2 Part] 9 But now thou seem'st to cast us off; thou shamest us also; And with our military troops to battle dost not go. 10 Thou mak'st us from our enemies basely to turn our back; And they who hate us, for themselves our spoils deserted, take. 11 As sheep for meat and slaughter doom'd, thou giv'st us to their hands; And scatt'rest our poor captives thro; their barb'rous, heathen lands. 12 Thy people Thou hast sold for nought; no wealthier art thou found: 13 Thou mak'st us a reproach and scoff to all our neighbours round. 14 Yea ev'n among the heathen Thou a proverb dost us make; And people round us in contempt at us their heads to shake. 15 Before our eyes continually appears our great disgrace; And wholly with confounding shame o'er-covered is our face; 16 By reason of the voice of him who taunts and vilifies; By reason of the faces of our spiteful enemies. [3 Part] 17 But tho' all this be come on us; yet we forget not thee, Nor falsly to thy covenant behave our selves do we. 18 Nor have our hearts returned back, nor feet from thy way stray'd; 19 Tho' us Thou break'st in dragons dens, and cov'rest in death's shade. 20 If our God's name forget, or hands to a strange God we raise; 21 Would not GOD fid it out? who sees the heart's most hidden ways. 22 Yet we as sheep to slaughter doom'd, kill'd for thy sake all day: 23 Wake Lord! why sleep'st Thou? rise! nor us for ever cast away. 24 Thy countenance away from us, O wherefore dost Thou hide? Why dost Thou mindless of our grief, and great distress, abide? 24 For down to dust our soul is bow'd, to earth our bellies cleave; 26 O rise, our mighty help, and us in thy great mercy save.

A Psalm of David

Hymnal: PHSS1758 #PLV (1758) First Line: O God, thine ear give to my pray'r Lyrics: 1 O GOD, thine ear give to my pray'r; and hide not Thou thy face From me now supplicating Thee, and suing for thy grace. 2 O be attentive now to me, and hear my doleful voice: I in my meditation mourn, and make a troubled noise; 3 Thro' my foes voice, and face of those who wickedly oppress; Who charge iniquities on me, and hate with spitefulness. 4 My heart in me is rack'd with pain; death's terrors me surprize; 5 Great fear and trembling on me come, and horrors on me seize. 6 O that I like a dove had wings, then I away would flee; That I might find a secret place, where I at rest could be. 7 Lo, I would wander then afar, and in some desart stay; (Selah.) 8 From storms and tempest here would I make haste to get away. [2 Part] 9 Confound their pow'r, O Lord, and let their tongues divided be: For rapine, violence and strife, I in the city see. 10 Unto her walls both day and night they go their constant rounds; And in the midst all mischief reigns, and grievousness abounds. 11 Yea in the midst, all wickedness at ev'ry corner meets; And fraud and circumventing guile are ever in her streets. 12 'Twas no known foe that slander'd me, for that I could abide; Nor one who op'nly hated me, for I from him could hide. 13 But thou the man, mine equal, who hast done me this despight; My guide and my familiar friend, in whom I took delight. 14 We oft together counsel took in sweet society; And walk'd on to the house of GOD, in pleasant company. 15 But death shall seize them; and they shall go down alive to hell: For wickednesses in their hearts and in their houses dwell. [3 Part] 16 On GOD I'll call; and then the LORD to save me will appear; 17 At ev'ning, morning, noon I'll cry; and He my voice will hear. 18 For from the war against me rais'd He did my soul set free; He bro't me to a state of peace; and many join with me. 19 God will me hear, and humble them: He rule did ever bear: (Selah.) Because they with no changes meet, ev'n GOD they do not fear. 20 On him who was at pace with them, they stretched forth their hand; Their sacred covenant with him by breaking they prophan'd. 21 Smoother than butter were their words, while in their heart was war? Their speeches softer were than oyl, but now drawn swords they are. 22 O cast thy burthen on the LORD; and He will thee sustain: He will not let the just be mov'd, but ever them maintain. 23 But Thou, O GOD, wilt send to hell the men of blood and guile; Who shall mpt live out half their days: but trust in thee I will.
