Psalm 128 sung a capella from the Scottish Metrical Psalter of 1650. (Meter: CM)

1  Blessed is each one that fears the Lord,
       and walketh in his ways;
 2  For of thy labour thou shalt eat,
       and happy be always.

 3  Thy wife shall as a fruitful vine
       by thy house' sides be found:
    Thy children like to olive-plants
        about thy table round.

 4  Behold, the man that fears the Lord,
       thus bless-ed shall he be.
 5  The Lord shall out of Zion give
       his blessing unto thee:

    Thou shalt Jerus'lem's good behold
       whilst thou on earth dost dwell.
 6  Thou shalt thy children's children see,
       and peace on Israel.

Ps 117 New Lydia (R)

17  His name for ever shall endure;
         last like the sun it shall:
      Men shall be blessed in him, and blessed
         all nations shall him call.

  18  Now blessèd be the Lord our God,
         the God of Israel,
      For he alone doth wondrous works,
         in glory that excel.

  19  And blessèd be his glorious name
         to all eternity:
      The whole earth let his glory fill.
         Amen, so let it be.

Psalm 119 from the Scottish Psalter of 1650. Recorded at Glasgow RP Church, 2018.

52  Thy judgments righteous, O Lord,
        which thou of old forth gave,
     I did remember, and myself
        by them comforted have.

 53  Horror took hold on me, because
        ill men thy law forsake.
 54  I in my house of pilgrimage
        thy laws my songs do make.

 55  Thy name by night, Lord, I did mind,
        and I have kept thy law.
 56  And this I had, because thy word
        I kept, and stood in awe.

Psalm 119 Part 7 (Tune: St Andrew)

38  Confirm to me thy gracious word,
        which I did gladly hear,
     Ev'n to thy servant, Lord, who is
        devoted to thy fear.

 39  Turn thou away my fear'd reproach;
        for good thy judgments be.
 40  Lo, for thy precepts I have long'd;
        in thy truth quicken me.
