Recorded at the general assembly of the Church of Scotland.

7 Ye gates, lift up your heads on high;
ye doors that last for aye,
Be lifted up, that so the King
of glory enter may.
8 But who of glory is the King?
The mighty Lord is this;
Ev'n that same Lord, that great in might
and strong in battle is.

9 Ye gates, lift up your heads; ye doors,
doors that do last for aye,
Be lifted up, that so the King
of glory enter may.
10 But who is he that is the King
of glory? who is this?
The Lord of hosts, and none but he,
the King of glory is.

Psalm 24 (Tune: St Georges Edinburgh)(congregation of 1000 people)

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)

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.

From the Scottish Psalter of 1650

Lyrics:
Praise ye the Lord; for it is good praise to our God to sing: 
for it is pleasant, and to praise it is a comely thing. 
God doth build up Jerusalem; and he it is a alone 
that the dispers'd of Isreal doth gather into one. 

Those that are broken in their heart, and grieved in their mind, 
He healeth, and their painful wounds he tenderly upbinds. 
He counts the number of the stars; he names them every one. 
Great is our Lord, and of great power; his wisdom search can none. 

The Lord lifts up the meek and casts the wicked to the ground. 
Sing to the Lord, and give him thanks; on harp his praises sound; 
Who covereth the heav'n with clouds who for the earth below 
prepareth rain, who maketh grass upon the mountains grow.

Psalm 147 v1-8 (Tune: Thanksgiving)

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 25 - Selma

Text from the Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650. 

 5  I of thy glorious majesty
        the honor will record;
     I'll speak of all thy mighty works,
        which wondrous are, O Lord.

  6  Men of thine acts the might shall show,
        thine acts that dreadful are;
     And I, thy glory to advance,
        thy greatness will declare.

  7  The mem'ry of thy goodness great
        they largely shall express;
     With songs of praise they shall extol
        thy perfect righteousness.

Psalm 145 [1st version] (Tune: LochBroom)

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  Attend, my people, to my law;
         thereto give thou an ear;
      The words that from my mouth proceed
         attentively do hear.

   2  My mouth shall speak a parable,
         and sayings dark of old;
   3  The same which we have heard and known,
         and us our fathers told.

   4  We also will them not conceal
         from their posterity;
      Them to the generation
         to come declare will we:

      The praises of the Lord our God,
         and his almighty strength,
      The wondrous works that he hath done,
         we will show forth at length.

Psalm 27 sung acapella from The Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650. (Meter: CM)(Meter: CM)

7  O Lord, give ear unto my voice,
         when I do cry to thee;
      Upon me also mercy have,
         and do thou answer me.

   8  When thou didst say, seek ye my face,
         then unto thee reply
      Thus did my heart, above all things
         thy face, Lord, seek will I.

   9  Far from me hide not thou thy face;
         put not away from thee
      Thy servant in thy wrath: thou hast
         an helper been to me.

      O God of my salvation,
         leave me not, nor forsake:
  10  Though me my parents both should leave,
         the Lord will me up take.
