Psalm 103 from the Scottish Psalter of 1650. Recorded at Dowanvale Free Church of Scotland.

For he remembers we are dust,
        and he our frame well knows.
 15  Frail man, his days are like the grass,
        as flow'r in field he grows:

 16  For over it the wind doth pass,
        and it away is gone;
     And of the place where once it was
        it shall no more be known.

 17  But unto them that do him fear
        God's mercy never ends;
     And to their children's children still
        his righteousness extends:

 18  To such as keep his covenant,
        and mindful are alway
     Of his most just commandements,
        that they may them obey.

Psalm 103 v14-18 (Tune: Kilmarnock)

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

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

  12  What man is he that life desires,
         to see good would live long?
  13  Thy lips refrain from speaking guile,
         and from ill words thy tongue.

  14  Depart from ill, do good, seek peace,
         pursue it earnestly.
  15  God's eyes are on the just; his ears
         are open to their cry.

  16  The face of God is set against
         those that do wickedly,
      That he may quite out from the earth
         cut off their memory.

  17  The righteous cry unto the Lord,
         he unto them gives ear;
      And they out of their troubles all
         by him delivered are.

  18  The Lord is ever nigh to them
         that be of broken sp'rit;
      To them he safety doth afford
         that are in heart contrite.

Psalm 34 v11-18 (Tune: St Ethelreda)

Psalm 44 sung acapella from The Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650. (Meter: CM)

1  O God, we with our ears have heard,
         our fathers have us told,
      What works thou in their days hadst done,
         ev'n in the days of old.

   2  Thy hand did drive the heathen out,
         and plant them in their place;
      Thou didst afflict the nations,
         but them thou didst increase.

   3  For neither got their sword the land,
         nor did their arm them save;
      But thy right hand, arm, countenance;
         for thou them favor gave.

   4  Thou art my King: for Jacob, Lord,
         deliv'rances command.
   5  Through thee we shall push down our foes,
         that do against us stand:

      We, through thy name, shall tread down those
         that ris'n against us have.
   6  For in my bow I shall not trust,
         nor shall my sword me save.

   7  But from our foes thou hast us saved,
         our haters put to shame.
   8  In God we all the day do boast,
         and ever praise thy name.

Psalm 44 (Tune: Old 44th)

From the Scottish psalter of 1650
Recording used by permission of the free Church of Scotland Psalmody committee

1  My heart is fixed, Lord; I will sing,
       and with my glory praise.
 2  Awake up psaltery and harp;
       myself I'll early raise.

 3  I'll praise thee 'mong the people, Lord;
       'mong nations sing will I:
 4  For above heav'n thy mercy's great,
       thy truth doth reach the sky.

 5  Be thou above the heavens, Lord,
       exalted gloriously;
    Thy glory all the earth above
       be lifted up on high.

 6  That those who thy beloved are
       deliver-ed may be,
    O do thou save with thy right hand,
       and answer give to me.


Psalm 108 (Tune: Warrick)

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.

Psalm 32 sung a capella from the Scottish Psalter of 1650. Recorded at Inverness Festival of Psalms (2000), 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.

   3  When as I did refrain my speech,
         and silent was my tongue,
      My bones then waxed old, because
         I roared all day long.

   4  For upon me both day and night
         thine hand did heavy lie,
      So that my moisture turned is
         in summer's drought thereby. 

   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 119 from the Scottish Psalter of 1650. Recorded at Glasgow RP Church, 2018.

52  Thy judgments righteous, O Lord,
        which thou of old forth gave,
     I did remember, and myself
        by them comforted have.

 53  Horror took hold on me, because
        ill men thy law forsake.
 54  I in my house of pilgrimage
        thy laws my songs do make.

 55  Thy name by night, Lord, I did mind,
        and I have kept thy law.
 56  And this I had, because thy word
        I kept, and stood in awe.

Psalm 115 sung acapella from the Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650. Used with permission of the Northern Presbytery Choir. (Meter: CM)

12  The Lord of us hath mindful been,
       and he will bless us still:
    He will the house of Isr'el bless,
       bless Aaron's house he will.

13  Both small and great, that fear the Lord,
       he will them surely bless.
14  The Lord will you, you and your seed,
       aye more and more increase.

15  O bless-ed are ye of the Lord,
       who made the earth and heav'n.
16  The heav'n, ev'n heav'ns, are God's, but he
       earth to men's sons hath giv'n.

17  The dead, nor who to silence go,
       God's praise do not record.
18  But henceforth we for ever will
       bless God. Praise ye the Lord.

Used with permission of the Northern Presbytery Choir of the Reformed Presbyterian Church of Ireland.

3 Set thou thy trust upon the Lord,
and be thou doing good;
And so thou in the land shalt dwell,
and verily have food.

4 Delight thyself in God; he'll give
thine heart's desire to thee.
5 Thy way to God commit, him trust,
it bring to pass shall he.
 
6 And, like unto the light, he shall
thy righteousness display;
And he thy judgment shall bring forth
like noon-tide of the day.

7 Rest in the Lord, and patiently
wait for him: do not fret
For him who, prosp'ring in his way,
success in sin doth get.

Psalm 118 from the Scottish Psalter of 1650. Sung by Dowanvale Free Church.

24  This is the day God made, in it
       we'll joy triumphantly.
25  Save now, I pray thee, Lord; I pray,
       send now prosperity.

26  Blessed is he in God's great name
       that cometh us to save:
    We, from the house which to the Lord
       pertains, you blessed have.

27  God is the Lord, who unto us
       hath made light to arise:
    Bind ye unto the altar's horns
       with cords the sacrifice.

28  Thou art my God, I'll thee exalt;
       my God, I will thee praise.
29  Give thanks to God, for he is good:
       his mercy lasts always.
