Gaelic Psalm 23 - Our Wedding

From the Scottish Psalter of 1650. Sung by members of St Columba's Free Church, Edinburgh.

15  Dear in God's sight is his saints' death.
16     Thy servant, Lord, am I;
    Thy servant sure, thine handmaid's son:
       my bands thou didst untie.

17  Thank off'rings I to thee will give,
       and on God's name will call.
18  I'll pay my vows now to the Lord
       before his people all;

19  Within the courts of God's own house,
       within the midst of thee,
    O city of Jerusalem.
       Praise to the Lord give ye.

Psalm 116 v15-19  (Tune: St Andrew)

This is one track on a project Jenna and I hope to work on in the coming months.  We have recorded 4 or 5 tracks professionally and will record more later with an aim to potentially make a CD which could contain some of our own stuff.  Watch this space!

1 LORD, you have searched my life and know my heart;
You search me and you know me through and through.
2 You know me when I sit and when I rise,
And from afar my thoughts are known to you.

3 You see my going out and lying down,
And you have perfect knowledge of my ways.
4 Before I speak a word, you know it, LORD,
For nothing can be hidden from your gaze.


5 Behind, before, you hem me in, O LORD,
And you have laid on me your mighty hand.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
Too high to grasp, too great to understand.

7 Where from your Spirit can I go and hide?
And from your presence, LORD, where can I fly?
8 If I ascend to heaven, you are there;
And in the lowest depths, if there I lie.

9 If I take flight upon the wings of dawn
And if I settle far beyond the sea,
10 There also you will guide me with your hand
And still your right hand will keep hold of me.

11 If I should say, “The dark will cover me
And light around me be as dark as night,”
12 Yet even darkness is not dark to you—
The night is as the day, the darkness light.

Psalm 139 (Tune: Highland Cathedral) [accompanied]

Psalm 51 - St Kilda

I’ll praise you, LORD, with all my heart;
Before the gods I’ll sing your praise.
2 I’ll bow towards your holy place
And bless your holy name always.

I’ll praise you for your faithfulness
And for your cov’nant love, O LORD,
For over all things you have raised
Your holy name and faithful word.

3 The very day I called to you,
You gave an answer to my plea.
You made me bold within myself;
With new resolve you strengthened me.

Although I walk a troubled path,
Your tender care preserves my life.
You raise your hand against my foes;
Your right hand saves me from their strife.

8 The LORD will certainly fulfil
For me the purpose he commands.
Your love endures for ever, LORD;
Preserve the works of your own hands.

Psalm 138 (Tune: Wareham)

Psalm 147 sung acapella from the Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650.
Singing by Airdrie Reformed Presbyterian Church(Meter: CM)

2 God doth build up Jerusalem;
and he it is alone
That the dispersed of Israel
doth gather into one.

3 Those that are broken in their heart,
and grievèd in their minds,
He healeth, and their painful wounds
he tenderly up-binds.

4 He counts the number of the stars;
he names them ev'ry one.
5 Great is our Lord, and of great pow'r;
his wisdom search can none.

Psalm 147 v2-5 (Tune: Main)

Psalm 90:1–4, 16–17 to the tune Wiltshire.
From the album 'Sing Praises and Rejoice' sung by the Brisbane youth group of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church of Australia. (www.epc.org.au)

Lord, thou hast been our dwelling-place
in generations all.
Before thou ever hadst brought forth
the mountains great or small;

Ere ever thou hadst form'd the earth,
and all the world abroad;
Ev'n thou from everlasting art
to everlasting God.

Thou dost unto destruction
man that is mortal turn;
And unto them thou say'st, Again,
ye sons of men, return.

Because a thousand years appear
no more before thy sight
Than yesterday, when it is past,
or than a watch by night.

O let thy work and pow'r appear
thy servants' face before;
And shew unto their children dear
thy glory evermore:

And let the beauty of the Lord
our God be us upon:
Our handy-works establish thou,
establish them each one
