PSALM 110		(Meter: S.M.)
		
	3	When you display your power,
			your people flock to you;
		At dawn, arrayed in holiness,
			your youth will come like dew.

	4	Unchangeably the LORD
			with solemn purpose swore:
		“Just like Melchizedek you are
			a priest for evermore.”

	5	The Lord’s at your right hand;
			there he will ever stay.
		He on his day of wrath will crush
			the kings who bar his way.

	6	The nations he will judge;
			the dead in heaps will lie.
		The mighty of the earth he’ll crush—
			all who his rule defy.

Psalm 110 (Tune: Selma)

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.

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.

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

1	In you I’ve taken refuge, LORD;
		You are my shelter in distress.
		O let me never be ashamed,
		But save me in your righteousness.

	2	LORD, turn your ear to hear my cry;
		Come quickly to deliver me,
		And be my rock and firm defence,
		My stronghold and security.

	3	You are my fortress and my rock;
		For your name’s sake be my sure guide.
	4	Preserve me from the trap that’s set;
		You are the refuge where I hide.

	5	Redeem me, LORD, O God of truth;
		My spirit I commit to you.
	6	I hate all those who trust false gods;
		I trust the LORD, for he is true.

Psalm 31 (Tune: Herongate)

Psalm 110 sung acapella from the Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650, by friends of the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland, Santa Fe, Texas, Used with permission. 

1  The Lord did say unto my Lord,
       Sit thou at my right hand,
    Until I make thy foes a stool,
       whereon thy feet may stand.

 2  The Lord shall out of Zion send
       the rod of thy great pow'r:
    In midst of all thine enemies
       be thou the governor.

 3  A willing people in thy day
       of pow'r shall come to thee,
    In holy beauties from morn's womb;
       thy youth like dew shall be.

 4  The Lord himself hath made an oath,
       and will repent him never,
    Of th' order of Melchisedec
       thou art a priest for ever.

 5  The glorious and mighty Lord,
       that sits at thy right hand,
    Shall, in his day of wrath, strike through
       kings that do him withstand.

 6  He shall among the heathen judge,
       he shall with bodies dead
    The places fill: o'er many lands
       he wound shall ev'ry head.

 7  The brook that runneth in the way
       with drink shall him supply;
    And, for this cause, in triumph he
       shall lift his head on high.

Psalm 37 v 3-7 - Dunedin
