Performed in Heaven is a compact disc of metrical psalms recorded at the Psalmody Recitals, held each winter since 1971 (except 1977) at St Vincent Street Free Church in Glasgow, where sizeable congregations gathered from a variety of churches and denominations. The psalms on the compact disc are all sung by the entire congregation and, as such, reflect the unaffectedness of congregational praise. The recordings are an authentic reflection of the type of singing that has been heard in the Reformed churches of Scotland since the Reformation. In order to produce this unique compilation of congregational psalm-singing, it was necessary to re-master recordings made with the technology of an earlier era. Thus, the recordings themselves span a period of twenty-five years, with the majority being from the seventies or eighties.

Performed in Heaven: Congregational Psalm Singing from Scotland

Psalm 119:57-60 Belmont

Recording taken from: http://www.freechurchcontinuing.org/reports/news/fcc-news/item/worthy-to-be-praised-cd-volume-10.  Sung acapella from the 1650 Scottish Metrical Psalter. (Meter: CM)

 1  I love the Lord, because my voice
       and prayers he did hear.
 2  I, while I live, will call on him,
       who bowed to me his ear.

 3  Of death the cords and sorrows did
       about me compass round;
    The pains of hell took hold on me,
       I grief and trouble found.

 4  Upon the name of God the Lord
       then did I call, and say,
    Deliver thou my soul, O Lord,
       I do thee humbly pray.

 5  God merciful and righteous is,
       yea, gracious is our Lord.
 6  God saves the meek: I was brought low,
       he did me help afford.

 7  O thou my soul, do thou return
       unto thy quiet rest;
    For largely, lo, the Lord to thee
       his bounty hath expressed.

Psalm 116 v1-7  (Tune: St Columba)

10 Be still, and know that I am God,
on earth exalted high;
And all the nations of the world
my name will glorify.

11 The LORD Almighty is with us
to strengthen and sustain;
For Jacob’s God our strong defence
and fortress will remain.

Psalm 46 v10-11 (Tune: St Paul) 'Be Still and Know'

Tell Me His Name Again

Psalm 133 sung acapella from The Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650. (Meter: CM)

1  Behold, how good a thing it is,
       and how becoming well,
    Together such as brethren are
       in unity to dwell!

 2  Like precious ointment on the head,
       that down the beard did flow,
    Ev'n Aaron's beard, and to the skirts,*
       did of his garments go.

 3  As Hermon's dew, the dew that doth
       on Zion' hills descend:
    For there the blessing God commands,
       life that shall never end.

Psalm 133 (Tune: Eastgate)

20  Unto thy cov'nant have respect;
         for earth's dark places be
      Full of the habitations
         of horrid cruelty.

  21  O let not those that be oppressed
         return again with shame:
      Let those that poor and needy are
         give praise unto thy name.

  22  Do thou, O God, arise and plead
         the cause that is thine own:
      Remember how thou art reproached
         still by the foolish one.

  23  Do not forget the voice of those
         that are thine enemies:
      Of those the tumult ever grows
         that do against thee rise.

PSALM 91 sung a capella from Sing Psalm (2003)(Produced by the Free Church of Scotland). Singing by Dowanvale Free Church. (Meter: 10.10.10.10)

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.”
