Text from the Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650.
Used with permission of the Northern Presbytery Choir of the Reformed Presbyterian Church of Ireland.

5  Thy mercy, Lord, is in the heav'ns;
       thy truth doth reach the clouds:
 6  Thy justice is like mountains great;
       thy judgments deep as floods:

    Lord, thou preservest man and beast. 
 7      How precious is thy grace!
    Therefore in shadow of thy wings
       men's sons their trust shall place.

 8  They with the fatness of thy house
       shall be well satisfied;
    From rivers of thy pleasures thou
       wilt drink to them provide.

 9  Because of life the fountain pure
       remains alone with thee;
    And in that purest light of thine
       we clearly light shall see.

10  Thy loving-kindness unto them
       continue that thee know;
    And still on men upright in heart
       thy righteousness bestow.

Psalm 36 (Tune: Elijah)

Text: Scottish Psalter (1650)  From the 'Worthy to be Praised' series of Psalmody CDs: sing-the-psalms.webs.com/ (Meter: CM)

8  His loving-kindness yet the Lord
         command will in the day,
      is song's with me by night; to God,
         by whom I live, I'll pray:

   9  And I will say to God my rock,
         Why me forgett'st thou so?
      Why, for my foes' oppression,
         thus mourning do I go?

  10  'Tis as a sword within my bones,
         when my foes me upbraid;
      Ev'n when by them, Where is thy God?
         'tis daily to me said.

  11  O why art thou cast down, my soul?
         why, thus with grief oppresed,
      Art thou disquieted in me?
         in God still hope and rest:

      For yet I know I shall him praise,
         who graciously to me
      The health is of my countenance,
         yea, mine own God is he.

Psalm 42 v8-11 (Tune: Notting Hill)

Recorded at youth Psalm sing @ Reformed Presbyterian International Covenanter holiday conference 2014  in Gartmore. (Meter: 87.87)

	Blessèd is the man who truly
		finds his help in Jacob’s God;
		blessèd is the man whose hope is
		centred on his God the LORD.
 
	4	Maker of the earth and heaven,
		he has made the mighty deep,
		and all things contained within them;
		he will truth forever keep.

	5	He will surely deal in justice
		for all those oppressed that be.
		Food the LORD gives to the hungry,
		and he sets the pris’ners free.

	6	Sight the LORD gives to the blind ones;
		those bowed down the LORD will raise,
		and the LORD shows love to all those	
who are righteous in their ways.

	7	Foreigners the LORD takes care of; 
		widows, orphans he’ll support,
		but the way of all the wicked
		he will turn aside and thwart.

f	8	Yes, the LORD will reign forever;
		Zion, your own God he is
		through unending generations. 
ff		Hallelujah! Give him praise!

Psalm 146 A (Tune: Converse)

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.

Ps 73 v 23-28 Wetherby

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.

(Words from The Psalms for Singing - A 21st Century Edition)

	3	Their soul within them fainted when	they hungered and did thirst.
		In trouble to the LORD they cried;	he saved them when distressed.

	4	Them also in a way to walk,	that straight is, he did guide,
		that they might to a city go,	in which they could reside.

	Let them give thanks now to the Lord	for love that never ends,
		and for his works of wonder done	unto the sons of men;

	6	For he the soul that thirsty is	does fully satisfy.
		With what is good, the hungry soul	he fills abundantly.

Text from: Psalms for Singing – A 21st Century Edition (2004)

1  SHOUT to God with joy all nations.
2  Sing the splendour of his name;
    make his praise resound with glory.
3 `Awesome are your works', proclaim.
 
   There in him let us be joyful;
7 he rules ever by his might,
   over all the nations watching;
   let not rebels rise to fight.
 
8 Bless our God, O all you peoples;
   let his praises loudly sound.
9 He has kept our souls still living,
   placed our feet on solid ground;
 
16  Come and listen, all God-fearers;
      I'll tell what he did for me.
17  With my mouth to him I cried, and
      with my tongue extolled was he.
 
18  Had I in my heart regarded
      sin, the Lord would not me hear;
19  God most certainly has heard me,
      and has listened to my prayer.
 
20 Blessed be God because he has not
     turned away from him my plea,
     and his cov'nant loving-kindness
     he has not withheld from me.

Psalm 66 (Tune: Ode to Joy)

13	Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
and your dominion lasts from age to age.
14	The LORD sustains all those who fall; the bowed down
he raises up. 15All fix on you their gaze,
and you them feed. 16You open wide your hand;
so all that lives you satisfy.
m     		17	The LORD is righteous, pure in all his ways,
and all his deeds are truly kind.
 
18	The LORD is near to all who call upon him,
to all those who in truth call on his name.
19	He will fulfil the wants of those who fear him;
and he will hear their cry and will them save.
20	The LORD keeps all who show their love to him;
d     			the wicked, though, he will destroy.
f     		21	My mouth will praise the LORD, and all will bless
his holy name forevermore.

Psalm 145 B  v13-21 (Tune: O Store Gud / How Great Thou Art)

THE earth and the riches with which it is stored,
the world and its dwellers belong to the LORD,
for he on the seas its foundations has laid,
and firm on the waters its pillars has made.
 
	O who will the hill of the LORD now ascend,
or who in the place of his holiness stand?
	The man of pure heart and of hands without stain,
who has not sworn falsely or loved what is vain.
 
	He will from the LORD then a blessing receive;
the God of salvation will righteousness give.
	Thus looking to him is this whole present race,
all those who, like Jacob, are seeking your face.

Psalm 130 from the Scottish Psalter of 1650.

1  Lord, from the depths to thee I cried.
 2     My voice, Lord, do thou hear:
    Unto my supplication's voice
       give an attentive ear.

 3  Lord, who shall stand, if thou, O Lord,
       should'st mark iniquity?
 4  But yet with thee forgiveness is,
       that feared thou mayest be.

 5  I wait for God, my soul doth wait,
       my hope is in his word.
 6  More than they that for morning watch,
       my soul waits for the Lord;

    I say, more than they that do watch
       the morning light to see.
 7  Let Israel hope in the Lord,
       for with him mercies be;

    And plenteous redemption
       is ever found with him.
 8  And from all his iniquities
       he Isr'el shall redeem.

5  His testimony and his law
         in Isr'el he did place,
      And charged our fathers it to show
         to their succeeding race;

   6  That so the race which was to come
         might well them learn and know;
      And sons unborn, who should arise,
         might to their sons them show:

   7  That they might set their hope in God,
         and suffer not to fall
      His mighty works out of their mind,
         but keep his precepts all:

   8  And might not, like their fathers, be
         a stiff rebellious race;
      A race not right in heart; with God
         whose sp'rit not steadfast was.

Psalm 78 v5-8 (Tune: Argyle)

Text: Scottish Psalter (1650)   (Meter: CM)

1  I to the hills will lift mine eyes,
       from whence doth come mine aid.
 2  My safety cometh from the Lord,
       who heav'n and earth hath made.

 3  Thy foot he'll not let slide, nor will
       he slumber that thee keeps.
 4  Behold, he that keeps Israel,
       he slumbers not, nor sleeps.

 5  The Lord thee keeps, the Lord thy shade
       on thy right hand doth stay:
 6  The moon by night thee shall not smite,
       nor yet the sun by day.

 7  The Lord shall keep thy soul; he shall
       preserve thee from all ill.
 8  Henceforth thy going out and in
       God keep for ever will.

11	For he will charge his angels with your care,
		To guard you in your footsteps every one;
	12	They will uphold and bear you in their hands,
		Lest you should strike your foot against a stone.

	13	Upon the mighty lion you will tread;
		The cobra you will overcome and kill.
		Your feet will trample down the king of beasts;
		The serpent will be crushed beneath your heel.

	14	“Because he loves me,” says the Sovereign LORD,
		“I’ll rescue and deliver him from harm.
		Since he acknowledges my holy name,
		I will protect him with my mighty arm.

	15	“He’ll call on me, and I will answer him;
		With him in time of trouble I will be.
		I will deliver him and honour him.
	16	Long will he live, and my salvation see.”

Psalm 127 sung acapella from The Scottish Psalter of 1650
Recorded at Glasgow Reformed Presbyterian Church.

1  Except the Lord do build the house,
       the builders lose their pain:
    Except the Lord the city keep,
       the watchmen watch in vain.

 2  'Tis vain for you to rise betimes,
       or late from rest to keep,
    To feed on sorrows' bread; so gives
       he his beloved sleep.

 3  Lo, children are God's heritage,
       the womb's fruit his reward.
 4  The sons of youth as arrows are,
       for strong men's hands prepared.

 5  O happy is the man that hath
       his quiver filled with those;
    They unashamèd in the gate
       shall speak unto their foes.
