PSALM 107 sung acapella from Sing Psalm (2003)(Produced by the Free Church of Scotland) Recorded at Glasgow Reformed Presbyterian Church.

10 Some sat in darkness and in gloom,
in chains of iron held;
11 They scorned the ways of God Most High,
against his words rebelled
.
12 And so he made them labour hard
in bitterness and shame.
They stumbled, and they could not rise;
to help them no one came.

13 Then to the LORD they cried for help;
he saved them from their doom.
14 He broke away their cruel chains
and brought them out of gloom.

15 So let them thank him for his love,
the deeds which he achieves—
16 Because he breaks down gates of bronze
and iron bars he cleaves.

Psalm 107 v10-16 (Tune: Morven)

1     Lord, bless and pity us,
         shine on us with thy face:
   2  That th' earth thy way, and nations all
         may know thy saving grace.

   3     Let people praise thee, Lord;
         let people all thee praise.
   4  O let the nations be glad,
         in songs their voices raise:

         Thou'lt justly people judge,
         on earth rule nations all.
   5  Let people praise thee, Lord; let them
         praise thee, both great and small.

   6     The earth her fruit shall yield,
         our God shall blessing send.
   7  God shall us bless; men shall him fear
         unto earth's utmost end.

Psalm 67 (Tune: Golden Hill)

Text: Scottish Psalter (1650) Recorded at Dowanvale Free Church of Scotland (Meter: CM)

8  The Lord our God is merciful,
        and he is gracious,
     Long-suffering, and slow to wrath,
        in mercy plenteous.

  9  He will not chide continually,
        nor keep his anger still.
 10  With us he dealt not as we sinned,
        nor did requite our ill.

 12  As far as east is distant from
        the west, so far hath he
     From us removed, in his love,
        all our iniquity.

 13  Such pity as a father hath
        unto his children dear;
     Like pity shews the Lord to such
        as worship him in fear.

Psalm 103 v8-13  (Tune: St Paul)

Text: Scottish Psalter (1650) Recorded Arbroath FCC Youth Weekend
(Meter: CM)

31  If they my laws break, and do not
         keep my commandements;
  32  I'll visit then their faults with rods,
         their sins with chastisements.

  33  Yet I'll not take my love from him,
         nor false my promise make.
  34  My cov'nant I'll not break, nor change
         what with my mouth I spake.

  35  Once by my holiness I sware,
         to David I'll not lie;
  36  His seed and throne shall, as the sun,
         before me last for aye.

  37  It, like the moon, shall ever be
         established stedfastly;
      And like to that which in the heav'n
         doth witness faithfully.

  38  But thou, displeased, hast cast off,
         thou didst abhor and loathe;
      With him that thine anointed is
         thou hast been very wroth.

Psalm 89 v31-38 (Tune: Winchester)

Text from the Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650.
Sung by Inverness, Free North, Free Church of Scotland.

 21  All praise and thanks be to the Lord;
         for he hath magnified
      His wondrous love to me within
         a city fortified.

  22  For from thine eyes cut off I am,
         I in my haste had said;
      My voice yet heard'st thou, when to thee
         with cries my moan I made.
 
 23  O love the Lord, all ye his saints;
         because the Lord doth guard
      The faithful, and he plenteously
         proud doers doth reward.

  24  Be of good courage, and He strength
         unto your heart shall send,
      All ye whose hope and confidence
         doth on the Lord depend.

Psalm 31 v21-24 (Tune: St Lawrence)

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 102 vs 13-16 (Bulawayo)

Psalm 25 v4-10 (Malan)

Frought with error, but a worthwhile endeavour.

Ps 92 v 1-5 Contemplation

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 23 sung acapella from The Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650. Sung at the 24rd Free Church of Scotland Glasgow Psalmody Recital, 1995

Second Version   Common Metre Tunes (6.6.6.6.8.8.)

  1  The Lord of heav'n confess,
     On high his glory raise.
  2  Him let all angels bless,
     Him all his armies praise.
  3       Him glorify
          Sun, moon, and stars;
  4       Ye higher spheres,
          And cloudy sky.

  5  From God your beings are,
     Him therefore famous make;
     You all created were,
     When he the word but spake.
  6       And from that place,
          Where fixed you be
          By his decree,
          You cannot pass.

  7  Praise God from earth below,
     Ye dragons, and ye deeps:
  8  Fire, hail, clouds, wind, and snow.
     Whom in command he keeps.
  9       Praise ye his name,
          Hills great and small,
          Trees low and tall;
 10       Beasts wild and tame;

     All things that creep or fly.
 11  Ye kings, ye vulgar throng,
     All princes mean or high;
 12  Both men and virgins young,
          Ev'n young and old,
 13       Exalt his name;
          For much his fame
          Should be extolled.

     O let God's name be praised
     Above both earth and sky;
 14  For he his saints hath raised,
     And set their horn on high;
          Ev'n those that be
          Of Isr'el's race,
          Near to his grace.
          The Lord praise ye.

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.

1O Lord, thy judgments give the king,
his son thy righteousness.
2With right he shall thy people judge,
thy poor with uprightness.
3The lofty mountains shall bring forth
unto the people peace;
Likewise the little hills the same
shall do by righteousness.
 
4The people's poor ones he shall judge,
the needy's children save;
And those shall he in pieces break
who them oppressed have.
5They shall thee fear, while sun and moon
do last, through ages all.
6Like rain on mown grass he shall drop,
or show'rs on earth that fall.

Sung from: Sing Psalms 2003 (Produced by the Free Church of Scotland). Recorded at Glasgow Reformed Presbyterian Church of Scotland (Meter: CM)

	4	One thing I’ll plead before the LORD,
			and this I’ll seek always:
		That I may come within God’s house
			and dwell there all my days—

		That on the beauty of the LORD
			I constantly may gaze,
		And in his house may seek to know
			direction in his ways.

	5	For in his dwelling he will keep
			me safe in troubled days;
		Within his tent he’ll shelter me,
			and on a rock me raise.

	6	My head will then be lifted high
			above my enemies;
		And in his tent I’ll sacrifice
			with shouts of joy and praise.

Psalm 27 v4-6 (Tune: Argyle)

But the upright ones will rule them, once the morning light has shone.
15 From the grave God will redeem me; he will take me for his own.
16 Do not quake before a rich man, though his fortune grows immense,
And his outward state increases— 17 for he will take nothing hence.

He will soon descend with nothing of the splendour he possessed,
18 Though in life he prospered greatly and they told him he was blessed.
19 He will go to join his fathers— never see the light of day.
20 Those with wealth and no discernment are like beasts that pass away.
