Psalm 81 v 13-16 - Dingwall

Text: Scottish Psalter of 1650 & 'The Psalms For Singing - 21stCentury Edition' From the 'Worthy to be Praised'  series of Psalmody CDs: http://sing-the-psalms.webs.com/ 
*I sang on this particular recording

 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.

Psalm 13 (CM)
1 How long will you forget me, LORD?
Will you forget always?
How long, LORD, will you hide your face
and turn from me your gaze?

2 How long must I be sad each day
in deep perplexity?
How long will my opponent stand
in triumph over me?

3 O LORD my God, consider me
and give me your reply.
Light up my eyes or I will sleep
the sleep of those who die.

4 Then would my enemy declare,
“At last I’ve laid him low!”
And so my foes would sing for joy
to see my overthrow.

5 But still I trust your constant love;
you save and set me free.
6 With joy I will extol the LORD
who has been good to me.

Psalm 13 (Tune: Bays Of Harris)

You are my Saviour and my God; 
All day I hope in you alone.
6    Remember, LORD, your love and grace  
Which from past ages you have shown.

10 To those who keep his covenant law.
 He shows his love eternally.
11 For your name’s sake, O LORD my God,
from all my sin please pardon me.

14    God’s friends are those who fear his name; 
With them his cov’nant he will share.
15    My eyes are always on the LORD; 
He watches us with tender care.

Recording from: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7jSDWy_P7M

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: Ardross / Dingwall ) (Scottish Psalter)

The name of God I with a song
         most cheerfully will praise;
      And I, in giving thanks to him,
         his name shall highly raise.

  33  For God the poor hears, and will not
         his prisoners contemn.
  34  Let heav'n, and earth, and seas, him praise,
         and all that move in them.

  35  For God will Judah's cities build,
         and he will Zion save,
      That they may dwell therein, and it
         in sure possession have.

  36  And they that are his servants' seed
         inherit shall the same;
      So shall they have their dwelling there
         that love his blessèd name.

Psalm 69 (Tune: St Leonard)

1 The LORD is my shepherd; no want shall I know.
2 He makes me lie down where the green pastures grow;
He leads me to rest where the calm waters flow.

3 My wandering steps he brings back to his way,
In straight paths of righteousness making me stay;
And this he has done his great name to display.

4 Though I walk in death’s valley, where darkness is near,
Because you are with me, no evil I’ll fear;
Your rod and your staff bring me comfort and cheer.

5 In the sight of my en’mies a table you spread.
The oil of rejoicing you pour on my head;
My cup overflows and I’m graciously fed.

6 So surely your covenant mercy and grace
Will follow me closely in all of my ways;
I will dwell in the house of the LORD all my days.

1 In you, O LORD, I’ve taken refuge;
protect me ever from disgrace.
2 Rescue and save me in your justice;
turn to me as I seek your face.

3 Be my strong rock and my sure refuge
to which I always may resort;
Give the command to help and save me,
because you are my rock and fort.

4 From wicked hands, my God, O save me,
from cruel hands of violence.
5 For, Sov’reign LORD, you’ve been my refuge
and since my youth my confidence.

6 From birth I have relied upon you;
you are the guide of all my ways.
Out of my mother’s womb you brought me;
to you I ever will give praise.

7 To many I’m a cause of wonder,
but you are still my refuge strong.
8 My mouth is filled with adoration,
praising your splendour all day long

1  In thee, O Lord, I put my trust,
         shamed let me never be;
      According to thy righteousness
         do thou deliver me.

   2  Bow down thine ear to me, with speed
         send me deliverance:
      To save me, my strong rock be thou,
         and my house of defense.

   3  Because thou art my rock, and thee
         I for my fortress take;
      Therefore do thou me lead and guide,
         ev'n for thine own name's sake.

   4  And since thou art my strength, therefore
         pull me out of the net,
      Which they in subtlety for me
         so privily have set.

   5  Into thine hands I do commit
         my sp'rit: for thou art he,
      O thou, Jehovah, God of truth,
         that hast redeemèd me.

Psalm 31 v1-5 (Tune: Consolation)

Psalm 77 - Ayrshire

Sung from Sing Psalms (2003) Recorded at Dowanvale Free Church of Scotland (Meter: CM) 

1 God is our refuge and our strength,
our ever-present aid;
2 And therefore, though the earth gives way,
we will not be afraid.

Though mountains fall into the sea,
3 though waters foam and roar,
We will not fear, though mountains quake
as waves engulf the shore.

4 A river flows, whose streams delight
the city of our God—
The holy place, in which the LORD
Most High has his abode.

5 God is within his holy place;
the city will not yield,
For God will come at break of day
to be her help and shield.

6 The nations are in disarray;
the kingdoms disappear.
God speaks, and at his mighty voice
the whole earth melts with fear.
