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.

Psalm 128 Sung acapella from: Sing Psalms 2003 (Produced by the Free Church of Scotland).  Recorded at Dowanvale Free Church of Scotland. Meter: LM

3 Your wife will be a fruitful vine;
And round your table will be placed
Your children like young olive shoots.
4 Thus he who fears the LORD is blessed.

5 May you behold Jerus’lem’s good;
From Zion may God’s blessing flow.
6 Your children’s children may you see.
May God on Isr’el peace bestow!

Psalm 128 (Tune: Duke Street)

Ps 117 New Lydia (R)

Text from the Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650. 
Sung by Free Church of Scotland Choir in Glasgow 1996 (recording reproduced with permission)

1  O sing a new song to the Lord,
         for wonders he hath done:
      His right hand and his holy arm
         him victory hath won.

   2  The Lord God his salvation
          hath caused to be known;
      His justice in the heathen's sight
          he openly hath shown.

   3  He mindful of his grace and truth
         to Isr'el's house hath been;
      And the salvation of our God
         all ends of th' earth have seen.

   4  Let all the earth unto the Lord
         send forth a joyful noise;
      Lift up your voice aloud to him,
         sing praises, and rejoice.

Psalm 98 (Tune: Westminster)

Psalm 41 From the Scottish Psalter of 1650. Recorded in Greenville Presbyterian Church (Free Church Continuing), USA.

   3  God will give strength when he on bed
         of languishing doth mourn;
      And in his sickness sore, O Lord,
         thou all his bed wilt turn.

   4  I said, O Lord, do thou extend
         thy mercy unto me;
      O do thou heal my soul; for why?
         I have offended thee.

   5  Those that to me are enemies,
         of me do evil say,
      When shall he die, that so his name
         may perish quite away?

   6  To see me if he comes, he speaks
         vain words: but then his heart
      Heaps mischief to it, which he tells,
         when forth he doth depart.

Psalm 41 v3-6 (Tune: Pembroke)

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 110 (Tune: Southwark)

23  My strength he weakened in the way,
        My days of life he shortened.
 24  My God, O take me not away
        In mid-time of my days, I said:

     Thy years throughout all ages last.
 25      Of old thou hast established
     The earth's foundation firm and fast:
        Thy mighty hands the heav'ns have made.

 26  They perish shall, as garments do,
        But thou shalt evermore endure;
     As vestures, thou shalt change them so;
        And they shall all be changed sure:

 27  But from all changes thou art free;
        Thy endless years do last for aye.
 28  Thy servants, and their seed who be,
        Established shall before thee stay.

From the Scottish Psalter of 1650
