1 Blessed is the one who turns away
from where the wicked walk,
Who does not stand in sinners’ paths
or sit with those who mock.

2 Instead he finds God’s holy law
his joy and great delight;
He makes the precepts of the LORD
his study day and night.

3 He prospers ever like a tree
that’s planted by a stream,
And in due season yields its fruit;
its leaves are always green.

4 Not so the wicked! They are like
the chaff that’s blown away.
5 They will not stand when judgment comes
or with the righteous stay.

6 It is the LORD who sees and knows
the way the righteous go,
But those who live an evil life
the LORD will overthrow.

Psalm 1 a (Tune: Creator)

PSALM 116 sung acapella from Sing Psalm (2003)(Produced by the Free Church of Scotland) Recorded at Dowanvale free Church September 2014. Meter: 10.10.10.10

5	The LORD our God is kind and full of grace;
		Both righteous and compassionate is he.
	6	The LORD protects all those of childlike faith;
		When I was in great need, he rescued me.

	7	Rest, O my soul; God has been good to you—
	8	For you, O LORD, have saved my soul from death,
		My feet from stumbling and my eyes from tears,
	9	That I may live for you while I have breath.

	10	I trusted in the LORD, and then I spoke;
		I said in anguish: “I am sorely tried”.
	11	And in the very depths of my dismay,
		“All men are liars—every one!” I cried.

	12	How can I thank the LORD for all he’s done?
	13	With gratitude salvation’s cup I’ll raise;
	14	I’ll call upon his name, and will fulfil
		My vows to him before his people’s face.

Copyright: Sing Psalms 2003. Psalm 2 sung acapella at a Free Church Glasgow Psalmody Recital, used with permission. (Meter: LM)

1 Why do the heathen nations rage?
Why do the peoples plot in vain?
2 Earth’s kings combine in enmity;
Her rulers join against God’s reign.

They take their stand against the LORD
And challenge his anointed one:
3 “Let us break off their chains from us;
With their restraints let us be done.”

4 The One enthroned in heaven laughs;
The Lord on high derides them all.
5 Then he rebukes them in his wrath;
His rage and terror on them fall.

6 The LORD has made it known to them:
“My chosen king I have installed
On Zion, my own holy hill.
He is the one whom I have called.”

Psalm 2 v1-6 (Tune: Rimington)

Psalm 1b sung a capella from Sing Psalm (2003)(Produced by the Free Church of Scotland). Meter: 88.88.88

1 How blessed the one who does not walk
Where wicked men would guide his feet,
Who does not stand in sinners’ paths
Or sit upon the scorners’ seat.
2 The law of God is his delight,
His meditation day and night.

3 He prospers like a tree, which has
Been planted by a flowing stream,
And in its season yields its fruit;
Its leaves are always fresh and green.
In every act and every word
He knows the blessing of the LORD.

4 Not so the wicked: they are like
The chaff the wind will blow away.
5 They will not in the judgment stand,
Nor sinners with the righteous stay.
6 God knows the way the righteous go;
The wicked’s way he’ll overthrow.

Psalm 1b (Tune: St Petersburg)

	8	“ ‘Ask me, and for your heritage
		I’ll give you nations near and far.
	9	You’ll break them with an iron rod,
		And smash them like a potter’s jar.’ ”

	10	Now therefore, kings, true wisdom find;
		You judges of the earth, give ear.
	11	With rev’rence come and serve the LORD;
		Bow down with joy and trembling fear.

	12	Pay homage to the royal son
		Lest you in wrath aside are thrust,
		For swiftly can his anger blaze.
		Blessèd are all who in him trust.

169 Let my cry come before you, O LORD;
Give me insight as pledged in your word.
170 May my pleading gain access to you;
Save my life, as you promised to do.

171 May my lips overflow with your praise,
For you teach me your statutes always.
172 May my tongue sing aloud of your word;
Your commandments are righteous, O LORD.

173 May your hand be stretched out for my aid,
Since by choice your commands I’ve obeyed.
174 I desire your salvation to see,
And your law is delightful to me.

175 Let me live and I’ll praise you in song;
May your laws give me help to go on.
176 Seek your servant who strayed like a sheep,
For your precepts I steadfastly keep.
