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.

*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 130 (Tune: Caroline)

Text from the Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650.

5  Thy mercy, Lord, is in the heav'ns;
       thy truth doth reach the clouds:
 6  Thy justice is like mountains great;
       thy judgments deep as floods:

    Lord, thou preservest man and beast. 
 7      How precious is thy grace!
    Therefore in shadow of thy wings
       men's sons their trust shall place.

 8  They with the fatness of thy house
       shall be well satisfied;
    From rivers of thy pleasures thou
       wilt drink to them provide.

 9  Because of life the fountain pure
       remains alone with thee;
    And in that purest light of thine
       we clearly light shall see.

10  Thy loving-kindness unto them
       continue that thee know;
    And still on men upright in heart
       thy righteousness bestow.

11  Let not the foot of cruel pride
       come, and against me stand;
    And let me not removed be,
       Lord, by the wicked's hand.

12  There fallen are they, and ruined,
       that work iniquities:
    Cast down they are, and never shall
       be able to arise.

Psalm 36 (Tune: London New)

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.

Psalm 137 - Dunlaps Creek
