Psalm 32 sung a capella from the Scottish Psalter of 1650.  used with permission. Meter: CM

1 O blessed is the man to whom
is freely pardoned
All the transgression he hath done,
whose sin is covered.

2 Blessèd is the man to whom the Lord
imputeth not his sin,
And in whose sp'rit there is no guile,
nor fraud is found therein.

5 I thereupon have unto thee
my sin acknowledged,
And likewise mine iniquity
I have not covered:

I will confess unto the Lord
my trespasses, said I;
And of my sin thou freely didst
forgive th' iniquity.

Psalm 32 v1,2,5 (Tune: Salzburg)

  1  The Lord's my shepherd, I'll not want.
   2     He makes me down to lie
      In pastures green: he leadeth me
         the quiet waters by.

   3  My soul he doth restore again;
         and me to walk doth make
      Within the paths of righteousness,
         ev'n for his own name's sake.

   4  Yea, though I walk in death's dark vale,
         yet will I fear none ill:
      For thou art with me; and thy rod
         and staff me comfort still.

   5  My table thou hast furnished
         in presence of my foes;
      My head thou dost with oil anoint,
         and my cup overflows.

   6  Goodness and mercy all my life
         shall surely follow me:
      And in God's house for evermore
         my dwelling-place shall be.

Sung acapella from the Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650.

2 Praise God with harp, and unto him
sing with the psaltery;
Upon a ten-stringed instrument
make ye sweet melody.

3 A new song to him sing, and play
with loud noise skilfully;
4 For right is God’s word, all his works
are done in verity.

5 To judgment and to righteousness
a love he beareth still;
The loving-kindness of the Lord
the earth throughout doth fill.

Psalm 33 v2-5 (Tune: Irish)

PSALM 34  From the Scottish Psalter of 1650. Meter: CM

7  The angel of the Lord encamps,
         and round encompasseth
      All those about that do him fear,
         and them delivereth.

   8  O taste and see that God is good:
         who trusts in him is blessed.
   9  Fear God his saints: none that him fear
         shall be with want oppressed.

  10  The lions young may hungry be,
         and they may lack their food:
      But they that truly seek the Lord
         shall not lack any good.

  11  O children, hither do ye come,
         and unto me give ear;
      I shall you teach to understand
         how ye the Lord should fear.

PSALM 34 sung a capella from the Scottish Psalter of 1650. Meter: CM

1  Lord, from the depths to thee I cried.
 2     My voice, Lord, do thou hear:
    Unto my supplication's voice
       give an attentive ear.

 3  Lord, who shall stand, if thou, O Lord,
       should'st mark iniquity?
 4  But yet with thee forgiveness is,
       that feared thou mayest be.

 5  I wait for God, my soul doth wait,
       my hope is in his word.
 6  More than they that for morning watch,
       my soul waits for the Lord;

    I say, more than they that do watch
       the morning light to see.
 7  Let Israel hope in the Lord,
       for with him mercies be;

    And plenteous redemption
       is ever found with him.
 8  And from all his iniquities
       he Isr'el shall redeem.

Psalm 130 (Tune: Martyrs)

17  His name for ever shall endure;
         last like the sun it shall:
      Men shall be blessed in him, and blessed
         all nations shall him call.

  18  Now blessèd be the Lord our God,
         the God of Israel,
      For he alone doth wondrous works,
         in glory that excel.

  19  And blessèd be his glorious name
         to all eternity:
      The whole earth let his glory fill.
         Amen, so let it be.

1  All people that on earth do dwell,
       Sing to the Lord with cheerful voice.
 2  Him serve with mirth, his praise forth tell,
       Come ye before him and rejoice.

 3  Know that the Lord is God indeed;
       Without our aid he did us make:
    We are his flock, he doth us feed,
       And for his sheep he doth us take.

 4  O enter then his gates with praise,
       Approach with joy his courts unto:
    Praise, laud, and bless his name always,
       For it is seemly so to do.

 5  For why? the Lord our God is good,
       His mercy is for ever sure;
    His truth at all times firmly stood,
       And shall from age to age endure.

Part Vau

 41  Let thy sweet mercies also come
        and visit me, O Lord;
     Ev'n thy benign salvation,
        according to thy word.

 42  So shall I have wherewith I may
        give him an answer just,
     Who spitefully reproacheth me;
        for in thy word I trust.

 43  The word of truth out of my mouth
        take thou not utterly;
     For on thy judgments righteous
        my hope doth still rely.

 44  So shall I keep for evermore
        thy law continually.
 45  And, sith that I thy precepts seek,
        I'll walk at liberty.

  2  Bless, O my soul, the Lord thy God,
        and not forgetful be
     Of all his gracious benefits
        he hath bestowed on thee.

  3  All thine iniquities who doth
        most graciously forgive:
     Who thy diseases all and pains
        doth heal, and thee relieve.

  4  Who doth redeem thy life, that thou
        to death may'st not go down;
     Who thee with loving-kindness doth
        and tender mercies crown:

  5  Who with abundance of good things
        doth satisfy thy mouth;
     So that, ev'n as the eagle's age,
        renewed is thy youth.

17  I shall not die, but live, and shall
       the works of God discover.
18  The Lord hath me chastised sore,
       but not to death giv'n over.

19  O set ye open unto me
       the gates of righteousness;
    Then will I enter into them,
       and I the Lord will bless.

20  This is the gate of God, by it
       the just shall enter in.
21  Thee will I praise, for thou me heard'st
       and hast my safety been.
