Sing Psalm 6(I):1-4, 7-10 (Tune: Retreat) Scottish Metrical Psalm

First Version (Long Metre) 

1 Lord, in thy wrath rebuke me not;

Nor in thy hot rage chasten me.

2 Lord, pity me, for I am weak:

Heal me, for my bones vexed be.

3 My soul is also vexed sore;

But, Lord, how long stay wilt thou make?

4 Return, O Lord, my soul set free;

O save me, for thy mercies’ sake.

7 Mine eye, consum’d with grief, grows old,

Because of all mine enemies.

8 Hence from me, wicked workers all;

For God hath heard my weeping cries.

9 God hath my supplication heard,

My pray’r received graciously

10 Sham’d and sore vex’d be all my foes,

Sham’d and back turned suddenly.

4 Fear, and sin not; talk with your heart

on bed, and silent be.

5 Off ‘rings present of righteousness,

and in the Lord trust ye.

6 O who will shew us any good?

is that which many say:

But of thy countenance the light,

Lord, lift on us alway.

7 Upon my heart, bestow’d by thee,

more gladness I have found

Than they, ev’n then, when corn and wine

did most with them abound.

8 I will both lay me down in peace,

and quiet sleep will take;

Because thou only me to dwell

in safety, Lord, dost make.

6 Lo, I do stretch my hands

To thee, my help alone;

For thou well understands

All my complaint and moan:

My thirsting soul desires,

And longeth after thee,

As thirsty ground requires

With rain refreshed to be.

7 Lord, let my pray’r prevail,

To answer it make speed;

For, lo, my sp’rit doth fail:

Hide not thy face in need;

Lest I be like to those

That do in darkness sit,

Or him that downward goes

Into the dreadful pit.

8 Because I trust in thee,

O Lord, cause me to hear

Thy loving-kindness free,

When morning doth appear:

Cause me to know the way

Wherein my path should be;

For why, my soul on high

I do lift up to thee.

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.

1 When Zion’s bondage God turned back,

as men that dreamed were we.

2 Then filled with laughter was our mouth,

our tongue with melody:

They ‘mong the heathen said, The Lord

great things for them hath wrought.

3 The Lord hath done great things for us,

whence joy to us is brought.

4 As streams of water in the south,

our bondage, Lord, recall.

5 Who sow in tears, a reaping time

of joy enjoy they shall.

6 That man who, bearing precious seed,

in going forth doth mourn,

He doubtless, bringing back his sheaves,

rejoicing shall return.

1 I joyed when to the house of God,

Go up, they said to me.

2 Jerusalem, within thy gates

our feet shall standing be.

3 Jerus’lem, as a city, is

compactly built together:

4 Unto that place the tribes go up,

the tribes of God go thither:

To Isr’el’s testimony, there

to God’s name thanks to pay.

5 For thrones of judgment, ev’n the thrones

of David’s house, there stay.

6 Pray that Jerusalem may have

peace and felicity:

Let them that love thee and thy peace

have still prosperity.

7 Therefore I wish that peace may still

within thy walls remain,

And ever may thy palaces

prosperity retain.

8 Now, for my friends’ and brethren’s sakes,

Peace be in thee, I’ll say.

9 And for the house of God our Lord,

I’ll seek thy good alway.

Sing to the Lord with cheerful voice.

Come ye before him and rejoice.

Without our aid he did us make:

We are his flock, he doth us feed,

And for his sheep he doth us take.

4 O enter then his gates with praise,

Approach with joy his courts unto:

Praise, laud, and bless his name always,

For it is seemly so to do.

5 For why? the Lord our God is good,

His mercy is for ever sure;

His truth at all times firmly stood,

And shall from age to age endure.

4 One thing I of the Lord desired,

and will seek to obtain,

That all days of my life I may

within God’s house remain;

That I the beauty of the Lord

behold may and admire,

And that I in his holy place

may rev’rently enquire.

5 For he in his pavilion shall

me hide in evil days;

In secret of his tent me hide,

and on a rock me raise.

6 And now, ev’n at this present time,

mine head shall lifted be

Above all those that are my foes,

and round encompass me:

Therefore unto his tabernacle

I’ll sacrifices bring

Of joyfulness; I’ll sing, yea, I

to God will praises sing.
