Text: Scottish Psalter (1650)  Recorded at Dowanvale Free Church of Scotland (Meter: CM)

7  Yet say they, God it shall not see,
         nor God of Jacob know.
   8  Ye brutish people! understand;
         fools! when wise will ye grow?

   9  The Lord did plant the ear of man,
         and hear then shall not he?
      He only formed the eye, and then
         shall he not clearly see?

  10  He that the nations doth correct,
         shall he not chastise you?
      He knowledge unto man doth teach,
         and shall himself not know?
  
11  Man's thoughts to be but vanity
         the Lord doth well discern.
  12  Blessed is the man thou chast'nest, Lord,
         and mak'st thy law to learn:

Psalm 94 (Tune: Coleshill)

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.

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 87 sung a capella from the Scottish Psalter of 1650. Recorded at the 24th Glasgow Recital 1995, used with permission. Meter: CM

1  Upon the hills of holiness
         he his foundation sets.
   2  God, more than Jacob's dwellings all,
         delights in Zion's gates.

   3  Things glorious are said of thee,
         thou city of the Lord.
   4  Rahab and Babel I, to those
         that know me, will record:

      Behold ev'n Tyrus, and with it
         the land of Palestine,
      And likewise Ethiopia;
         this man was born therein.

   5  And it of Zion shall be said,
         This man and that man there
      Was born; and he that is most High
         himself shall stablish her.

   6  When God the people writes, he'll count
         that this man born was there.
   7  There be that sing and play; and all
         my well-springs in thee are.

Psalm 87 (Tune: St Gregory)

Psalm 46 from the 1650 scottish metrical psalter. Recorded at the 2019 General Assembly of the Church of Scotland. 

1  God is our refuge and our strength,
         in straits a present aid;
   2  Therefore, although the earth remove,
         we will not be afraid:

      Though hills amidst the seas be cast;
   3     Though waters roaring make,
      And troubled be; yea, though the hills,
         by swelling seas do shake.

   4  A river is, whose streams do glad
         the city of our God;
      The holy place, wherein the Lord
         most high hath his abode.

   5  God in the midst of her doth dwell;
         nothing shall her remove:
      The Lord to her an helper will,
         and that right early, prove.

Psalm 46 (Tune: Stroudwater)
