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.

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.

Text: Psalm 7 from 'Psalms for Singing – A 21st Century Edition (2004)'
Produced by the Reformed Presbyterian church of Ireland.
Recorded during morning worship @ Airdrie RPCS on 23/3/14

Psalm 7 (Tune: Eventide)

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 (How Great Thou Art)  *Bass*

Psalm 13 (Acapella | Sung by Pastor Tim McCracken)

Not the 'Land of Rest' that I know, but apparently that's the name?

Psalm 139 (Tune: Land of Rest*)

I suppose the title should read 'found recordings' huh

Psalm 117 (Tune: Rimington)

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)

Who go to sea in ships, and in
great waters trading be,
Within the deep these men God's works
and his great wonders see.

For he commands, and forth in haste
the stormy tempest flies,
Which makes the sea with rolling waves
aloft to swell and rise.

They mount to heav'n, then to the depths
they do go down again;
Their soul doth faint and melt away
with trouble and with pain.

They reel and stagger like one drunk,
at their wit's end they be:
Then they to God in trouble cry,
who them from straits doth free.

The storm is changed into a calm
at his command and will;
So that the waves, which raged before,
now quiet are and still.

Then are they glad, because at rest
and quiet now they be:
So to the haven he them brings,
which they desired to see.

Psalm 107v23-30

Psalm 42 from the Scottish Psalter of 1650. Recorded at 'Arbroath' youth weekend.

5  O why art thou cast down, my soul?
         why in me so dismayed?
      Trust God, for I shall praise him yet,
         his count'nance is mine aid.

      7  At the noise of thy water-spouts
         deep unto deep doth call;
      Thy breaking waves pass over me,
         yea, and thy billows all.

   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?

Psalm 42 (Tune: Seek Ye First)

1	O praise, you servants of the LORD;
		Sing praises to his holy name.
	2	O blessèd be the name of God;
		His praise for evermore proclaim.
	3	From east to west the praise of God
		Each day is to be spread abroad.

	4	The LORD is high above the earth,
		His glory far above the sky.
	5	Who else is like the LORD our God,
		The one who sits enthroned on high?
	6	He is the one who stoops down low
		To look on heav’n and earth below.

	7	He raises outcasts from the dust
		And from the ash-heap lifts the poor,
	8	Exalting them to dignity,
		With noblemen to sit secure.
	9	The childless woman he’ll reward
		With home and children.  Praise the LORD!

Psalm 113 (Tune: Abingdon)

Copyright: Sing Psalms 2003 (Produced by the Free Church of Scotland). 
Sung by Dowanvale Free Church Of Scotland

1 The world and all in it are God’s,
all peoples of the earth,
2 For it was founded by the LORD
upon the seas beneath.
3 Who may ascend the hill of God,
or in his temple stand?
4 The one who shuns false gods and lies,
who’s pure in heart and hand.
5 He will find favour from the LORD,
and from his Saviour grace.
6 Thus are they blessed, O Jacob’s God,
who truly seek your face.
7 You ancient gates, lift up your heads;
you doors, be opened wide—
So may the King of glory come
for ever to abide.
8 But who is this exalted King?
What glorious King is he?
It is the LORD of strength and might,
the LORD of victory.
9 You ancient gates, lift up your heads;
you doors, be opened wide—
So may the King of glory come
for ever to abide.
10 But who is this exalted King?
Who can this sovereign be?
The LORD Almighty, he is King
of glory, none but he.

Psalm 24 (Tune: Winchester)

from the Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650

14  But I with expectation
         will hope continually;
      And yet with praises more and more
         I will thee magnify.

  15  Thy justice and salvation
         my mouth abroad shall show,
      Ev'n all the day; for I thereof
         the numbers do not know.

  16  And I will constantly go on
         in strength of God the Lord;
      And thine own righteousness, ev'n thine
         alone, I will record.

  17  For even from my youth, O God,
         by thee I have been taught;
      And hitherto I have declared
         the wonders thou hast wrought.

1 How excellent a thing it is,
how pleasant and how good,
When brothers dwell in unity
and live as brothers should!

2 For it is like the precious oil,
poured out on Aaron’s head,
That, running over, down his beard,
upon his collar spread.

3 Like Hermon’s dew, upon the hill
of Zion it descends.
The LORD bestows his blessing there—
the life that never ends.

	2	May all who seek my harm
		in shame now turned back be.
		May they be turned back in disgrace
		who say, “Ha! Ha!” to me.

	3	Let all who seek you joy,
		be glad in you above.
		Keep saying, “God is great,” all those
		who your salvation love.

	4	But I am poor, in need;
		O God, come soon to me.
		O LORD, do not delay; my help
		and my deliv’rer be.

1 You mighty ones, give to the LORD as his right,
Ascribe to the LORD God both glory and might.
2 To the LORD’s name due glory and honour accord;
In beauty of holiness worship the LORD.

3 The LORD’s voice is over the waters abroad,
And thunder proceeds from the glorious God.
Above all the waters God’s thunder is heard;
4 A powèrful voice is the voice of the LORD.

The voice of the LORD is majestic and loud;
5 By the voice of the LORD the great cedars are bowed.
Yes, even the cedars of Lebanon tall,
The LORD breaks in pieces and shatters them all.

10 The LORD over floods sits as monarch alone;
The LORD sits for ever as King on his throne.
11 The LORD makes the strength of his people increase;
The LORD gives his people the blessing of peace.

7 The LORD for ever reigns on high;
his throne for judgment stands.
8 He’ll judge the world in righteousness,
with justice rule the lands.

9 The LORD will be a hiding place
for those who are oppressed,
And he will be a strong defence
for those who are distressed.

10 All those who know your name, O LORD,
in you their trust will place,
For you do not abandon those
who seek your gracious face.

11 Sing praises to the LORD who sits
in Zion on his throne;
Among the nations of the world
proclaim what he has done.

Recorded @ Dowanvale Free Church

1 Praise God, my soul! With all my heart
Let me exalt his holy name.
2 Forget not all his benefits;
His praise, my soul, in song proclaim.
3 The LORD forgives you all your sins,
And heals your sickness and distress;
4 Your life he rescues from the grave,
And crowns you in his tenderness.

5 He satisfies your deep desires
From his unending stores of good,
So that, just like the eagle’s strength,
Your youthful vigour is renewed.
6 The LORD is known for righteous acts
And justice to downtrodden ones.
7 To Moses he made known his ways,
His mighty deeds to Israel’s sons.

8 The LORD is merciful and kind,
To anger slow, and full of grace.
9 He will not constantly reprove,
Or in his anger hide his face.
10 He does not punish our misdeeds,
Or give our sins their just reward.
11 How great his love—as high as heaven—
Towards all those who fear the LORD!

Psalm 118 (CM) from 'Psalms for Singing – A 21st Century Edition (2004)'

	This is the LORD’s own gate, by it
		the just will enter in.
		I’ll thank you, for you answered me;
		my Saviour you have been.

	14	That stone is made head cornerstone,
		which builders cast aside.
		This is the doing of the LORD, 
		a wonder to our eyes.

f	15	This day the LORD has made; let us
		be glad in it with joy.
mf		LORD, save, I pray; O LORD, I pray
		send now prosperity.

	16	O Blessèd is the one who comes,
		comes in the LORD’s great name;
		the blessing from the LORD’s house we
		upon you do proclaim.

	17	God is the LORD, who unto us
		has made light to arise;
		bind to the altar’s horns with cords
		the festal sacrifice.

f	18	You are my God; I’ll give you thanks;
		my God, I will you praise.
		O thank the LORD, for he is good;
		for his love lasts always.
