 What time my heart is overwhelmed,
         and in perplexity,
      Do thou me lead unto the Rock
         that higher is than I.
   
3  For thou hast for my refuge been
         a shelter by thy pow'r;
      And for defense against my foes
         thou hast been a strong tow'r.
  
 4  Within thy tabernacle I
         for ever will abide;
      And under covert of thy wings
         with confidence me hide.

Psalm 61 v2-4 (Tune: Land of Rest)

Psalm 27 v 4-7 - Wetherby

Psalm 22 v 21-24 (Kilmarnock)

Text from the Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650. 
Sung by Free Church of Scotland Choir(recording reproduced with permission)

1 God’s mercies I will ever sing;
and with my mouth I shall
Thy faithfulness make to be known
to generations all.

2 For mercy shall be built, said I,
for ever to endure;
Thy faithfulness, ev’n in the heav’ns,
thou wilt establish sure.

3 I with my chosen One have made
a cov’nant graciously;
And to my servant, whom I lov’d,
to David sworn have I;

4 That I thy seed establish shall
for ever to remain,
And will to generations all
thy throne build and maintain.

5 The praises of thy wonders, Lord,
the heavens shall express;
And in the congregation
of saints thy faithfulness.

Fraught with error, but a worthwhile endeavour.

25  Whom have I in the heavens high
         but thee, O Lord, alone?
      And in the earth whom I desire
         besides thee there is none.

  26  My flesh and heart doth faint and fail,
         but God doth fail me never:
      For of my heart God is the strength
         and portion for ever.

  27  For, lo, they that are far from thee
         for ever perish shall;
      Them that a whoring from thee go
         thou hast destroyed all.

  28  But surely it is good for me
         that I draw near to God:
      In God I trust, that all thy works
         I may declare abroad.

Psalm 73 v25-28 (Tune: Wetherby)

(Meter: SM )

7 I’ll praise the LORD my God,
whose counsel guides my choice;
And even in the night, my heart
recalls instruction’s voice.

8 Before me constantly
I set the LORD alone.
Because he is at my right hand
I’ll not be overthrown.

9 Therefore my heart is glad;
my tongue with joy will sing.
My body too will rest secure
in hope unwavering.

10 For you will not allow
my soul in death to stay,
Nor will you leave your Holy One
to see the tomb’s decay.

11 You have made known to me
the path of life divine.
Bliss shall I know at your right hand;
joy from your face will shine.

Psalm 85 (reproduced with permission) Copyright: Sing Psalms 2003 (Produced by the Free Church of Scotland). Recorded at St Peters Free Church Service in Dundee, 2018 Meter: (87.87D)

4 God our Saviour, now restore us;
from us turn away your rage.
5 Will your anger burn against us?
Will it last from age to age?
6 Will you not again revive us,
that we may rejoice in you?
7 Show us, LORD, your covenant mercy;
your salvation grant anew.

8 I will hear what God the LORD says:
to his saints he offers peace;
But his people must not wander
and return to foolishness.
9 Surely for all those who fear him
his salvation is at hand,
So that once again his glory
may be seen within our land.

10 Love and truth have met together;
righteousness and peace embrace.
11 Righteousness looks down from heaven;
from the earth springs faithfulness.
12 What is good the LORD will give us,
and our land its fruit will bear.
13 Righteousness will go before him
and his royal way prepare.

Psalm 85 (Tune: Ebeneezer)

Headphones are highly recommended. It's hard to follow the individual parts in mono I find.

Psalm 34 (Sing Psalms)  - Resignation

Text from the Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650.

1  O Lord, thou hast been favorable
         to thy beloved land:
      Jacob's captivity thou hast
         recalled with mighty hand.

   2  Thou pardoned thy people hast
         all their iniquities;
      Thou all their trespasses and sins
         hast covered from thine eyes.

   3  Thou took'st off all thine ire, and turn'dst
         from thy wrath's furiousness.
   4  Turn us, God of our health, and cause
         thy wrath 'gainst us to cease.

   5  Shall thy displeasure thus endure
         against us without end?
      Wilt thou to generations all
         thine anger forth extend?

Psalm 85 v1-5 (Tune: Naomi)

Text from the Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650.

1  After thy loving-kindness, Lord,
         have mercy upon me:
      For thy compassions great, blot out
         all mine iniquity.

   2  Me cleanse from sin, and thoroughly wash
         from mine iniquity:
   3  For my transgressions I confess;
         my sin I ever see.

   4  'Gainst thee, thee only, have I sinned,
         in thy sight done this ill;
      That when thou speak'st thou may'st be just,
         and clear in judging still.

   5  Behold, I in iniquity
         was formed the womb within;
      My mother also me conceived
         in guiltiness and sin.

   6  Behold, thou in the inward parts
         with truth delighted art;
      And wisdom thou shalt make me know
         within the hidden part.

   7  Do thou with hyssop sprinkle me,
         I shall be cleansed so;
      Yea, wash thou me, and then I shall
         be whiter than the snow.

1 O thou my soul, bless God the Lord;
and all that in me is
Be stirred up his holy name
to magnify and bless.

2 Bless, O my soul, the Lord thy God,
and not forgetful be
Of all his gracious benefits
he hath bestowed on thee.

3 All thine iniquities who doth
most graciously forgive:
Who thy diseases all and pains
doth heal, and thee relieve.

4 Who doth redeem thy life, that thou
to death may’st not go down;
Who thee with loving-kindness doth
and tender mercies crown:

5 Who with abundance of good things
doth satisfy thy mouth;
So that, ev’n as the eagle’s age,
renewed is thy youth.

1 I waited for the Lord my God,
and patiently did bear;
At length to me he did incline
my voice and cry to hear.

2 He took me from a fearful pit,
and from the miry clay,
And on a rock he set my feet,
establishing my way.

3 He put a new song in my mouth,
our God to magnify:
Many shall see it, and shall fear,
and on the Lord rely.

4 O blessed is the man whose trust
upon the Lord relies;
Respecting not the proud, nor such
as turn aside to lies.
