A Psalm of David: When he fled from the Face of Absalom his Son
Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Lord, how my troublers multiply Lyrics: 1 Lord, how my troublers multiply?
How many up against me rise?
2 Of my sad soul, how many say,
"His GOD to him no help supplies."
3 Yet Thou, O LORD, my glory art,
My shield, and raisest up my head.
4 I to JEHOVAH cry'd, who from
His holy hill me answered. (Selah)
5 I lay down, slept, and then awak'd;
For up JEHOVAH did me bear:
6 Tho' people round against me set,
Ten thousands of them I'll not fear.
7 O LORD my God, to save me rise;
For all my foes have felt thy stroke
Upon their faces, and the teeth
Of the ungodly Thou hast broke.
8 Salvation wholly to the LORD,
Does and shall ever appertain;
And on thy people evermore
Thy blessing does and shall remain. Scripture: Psalm 3
A Psalm of David: When he fled from the Face of Absalom his Son
A Psalm of David
Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Lord, I'll thee praise, with all my heart Lyrics: 1 Lord I'll Thee praise with all my heart,
thy wonders all proclaim.
2 O Thou most high, in Thee I'll joy,
exult, and sing thy name.
3 My foes in turning backward fall,
and perish at thy sight;
For thou maintainest my just cause,
enthron'd thou judgest right.
4 The heathen thou rebuked hast,
the wicked overthrown;
5 Thou blottest out their name, that they
may never more be known.
6 Thy desolations, O thou foe,
are ended utterly;
Who many cities hast destroy'd,
and made their mem'ry die.
7 But now JEHOVAH ever shall
endure and ever reign;
His throne He hath established
just judgment to maintain.
8 Yea, he the universal world
shall judge in righteousness;
And to all people judgment give
in perfect uprightness.
9 A refuge high for the oppress'd
JEHOVAH will become;
He is to them a refuge safe
in seasons troublesome.
10 And they who duly know thy name,
in Thee their trust will place;
Because Thou, LORD, hast never left
the seekers of thy face.
[2 Part]
11 O sing ye praises to the LORD,
who does in Zion dwell;
His wondrous doings all abroad
among his people tell.
12 When He enquireth after blood
he minds them carefully:
Of those who meek and humble are
he ne'r forgets the cry.
13 LORD, pity me, and weigh my grief
which I from foes sustain;
And from the op'ning gates of death
O raise me up again.
14 That I in Zion's daughter's gates
may shew forth all thy praise:
And my triumphant shouts of joy
in thy salvation, raise.
15 The heathen people are sunk down
into the pit they made;
their foot is taken in the net
which secretly they laid.
16 By judgments which He executes
more known JEHOVAH is;
Ill men are caught in their own snares;
deeply consider this. (Selah.)
17 Those who continue wicked, shall
be turned down to hell;
Where all the nations of the earth
who GOD forget, shall dwell.
18 Thy needy, tho' destress'd a while,
shall never be forgot;
The expectations of thy poor,
defer'd, yet perish not.
19 O let not wretched man prevail;
but O JEHOVAH rise;
The heathen people in thy fight
let judged be likewise.
20 O thou JEHOVAH, strike them all
with trembling fear; and then
Thou wilt the nations make to know,
they are but wretched men. (Selah.) Scripture: Psalm 9
A Psalm of David
A Psalm of David
Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Lord, in thy tabernacle, who Lyrics: 1 Lord, in thy tabernacle, who
a soujourner shall be?
And who is he inhabit shall
Thy mount of sanctity?
2 The man who walketh uprightly,
who worketh righteousness;
And who the truth within his heart
does uprightly express.
3 Who with his tongue backbiteth not,
nor does his neighbour hurt;
Nor yet against his neighbour doth
take up an ill report.
4 Whose eyes the vile, tho' great, contemn;
but all the LORD who fear,
He honours; and he changes not,
tho' to his hurt he swear.
5 Who to oppressing usury,
his money hath not let;
Nor taketh a reward or bribe
against the innocent.
Who constantly observes these things,
is graciously approv'd,
He's surely in a happy state,
and never shall be mov'd. Scripture: Psalm 15
A Psalm of David
Lord, in thy tabernacle, who
Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, in thy tabernacle who
Wilt thou with welcome entertain?
Who on thy mount of sanctity,
A constant dweller shall remain?
2 The man who walketh uprightly,
That always worketh righteousness,
And what is in his honest-heart
Does truly with his mouth express.
3 Who with his tongue backbiteth not,
Nor does his neighbor any wrong,
Nor takes up a reproach to hurt
His neighbour from another's tongue.
4 Whose eyes the vile, tho' great, contemn,
But honours all who fear the LORD:
Who truly swears, tho' to his hurt;
And changes not, but keeps his word.
5 Who to oppressing usury
Hath not for gain his money lent;
Nor taketh a reward or bribe
To wrong a person innocent.
Who constantly observes these things,
And does all in sincerity;
Is surely in a happy state,
And he shall never moved be. Scripture: Psalm 15 Text Sources: Chiefly from Dr. Ford: but nearer the Original.
Lord, in thy tabernacle, who
A Psalm of David
Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: O Lord our Lord, in all the earth Lyrics: 1 O Lord, our Lord, in all the earth
how does thy name excel!
Who high above the heav'ns hast set
thy majesty to dwell.
2 From mouths of babes and sucklings thou
dost pow'r and praise ordain;
That thou may'st still thine enemies,
and spiteful foes restrain.
3 When I thy glorious heav'ns behold,
thy fingers work divine,
The moon and stars which thou hast set
in order as they shine;
4 O what is wretched man that thou
shouldst have him in thy mind,
And Adam's son, that thou should'st be
to visit him so kind?
5 For than the Angels thou hast him
but little lower made;
With glory and with majesty
thou crowned hast his head.
6 To Him dominion Thou hast giv'n
over thy works below;
Under his feet hast put them all,
to him hast made them bow.
7 Both all the tamer flocks and herds,
wild beasts that range more free,
8 Swift in the air the fowls that flie,
and fishes of the sea.
9 Yea those that make great paths along
the sea, and pass the same*
O LORD, our Lord, in all the earth,
how excellent thy name! Scripture: Psalm 8
A Psalm of David
A Psalm of David
Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: O Lord, rebuke me not in wrath Lyrics: 1 O Lord, rebuke me not in wrath,
Nor in thine anger chasten me:
2 LORD, pity; I am weak: Lord heal;
My bones are vex'd exceedingly.
3 My soul is also in distress:
How long delay, LORD, wilt Thou make?
4 Return, O LORD; my soul relieve;
O save me for thy mercies sake.
5 Shall the dead praise Thee in the grave?
Of Thee no mem'ry there have they.
6 I'm tir'd with groans: by night my bed
With tears swims, and my couch by day.
7 Mine eye consum'd with grief grows old,
Because of all mine enemies:
8 But now depart away from me,
All ye who work iniquities;
Because JEHOVAH now hath heard
The voice of my lamenting tears:
9 The LORD hath heard my humble suit,
JEHOVAH will accept my pray'rs.
10 Let all my foes be put to shame,
And greatly troubled let them be.
Yea let them be returned back,
And made ashamed speedily.
A Psalm of David
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
