Sing Psalm 145(II):8-16 (Tune: Walton) Scottish Metrical Psalm 1650Second metre

8 The Lord is very gracious,

in him compassions flow;

In mercy he is very great,

and is to anger slow.

9 The Lord Jehovah unto all

his goodness doth declare;

And over all his other works

his tender mercies are.

10 Thee all thy works shall praise, O Lord,

and thee thy saints shall bless;

11 They shall thy kingdom’s glory show,

thy pow’r by speech express:

12 To make the sons of men to know

his acts done mightily,

And of his kingdom th’ excellent

and glorious majesty.

13 Thy kingdom shall for ever stand,

thy reign through ages all.

14 God raiseth all that are bowed down,

upholdeth all that fall.

15 The eyes of all things wait on thee,

the giver of all good;

And thou, in time convenient,

bestow’st on them their food:

16 Thine hand thou open’st lib’rally,

and of thy bounty gives

Enough to satisfy the need

of ev’ry thing that lives.

1 My God, my God, why hast thou me

forsaken? why so far

Art thou from helping me, and from

my words that roaring are?

2 All day, my God, to thee I cry,

yet am not heard by thee;

And in the season of the night

I cannot silent be.

14 Like water I’m pour’d out, my bones

all out of joint do part:

Amidst my bowels, as the wax,

so melted is my heart.

15 My strength is like a potsherd dry’d;

my tongue it cleaveth fast

Unto my jaws; and to the dust

of death thou brought me hast.

16 For dogs have compass’d me about:

the wicked, that did meet

In their assembly, me inclos’d;

they pierc’d my hands and feet.

17 I all my bones may tell; they do

upon me look and stare.

18 Upon my vesture lots they cast,

and clothes among them share.

19 But be not far, O Lord, my strength;

haste to give help to me.

20 From sword my soul, from pow’r of dogs

my darling set thou free.

21 Out of the roaring lion’s mouth

do thou me shield and save:

For from the horns of unicorns

an ear to me thou gave.

9 The Lord did plant the ear of man,

and hear then shall not he?

He only formed the eye, and then

shall he not clearly see?

10 He that the nations doth correct,

shall he not chastise you?

He knowledge unto man doth teach,

and shall himself not know?

11 Man’s thoughts to be but vanity

the Lord doth well discern.

12 Blessed is the man thou chast’nest, Lord,

and mak’st thy law to learn:

13 That thou may’st give him rest from days

of sad adversity,

Until the pit be digged for those

that work iniquity.

14 For sure the Lord will not cast off

those that his people be,

Neither his own inheritance

quit and forsake will he:

15 But judgment unto righteousness

shall yet return again;

And all shall follow after it

that are right-hearted men.

10 Threescore and ten years do sum up

our days and years, we see;

Or, if, by reason of more strength,

in some fourscore they be:

Yet doth the strength of such old men

but grief and labor prove;

For it is soon cut off, and we

fly hence, and soon remove.

11 Who knows the power of thy wrath?

according to thy fear

12 So is thy wrath: Lord, teach thou us

our end in mind to bear;

And so to count our days, that we

our hearts may still apply

To learn thy wisdom and thy truth,

that we may live thereby.

13 Turn yet again to us, O Lord,

how long thus shall it be?

Let it repent thee now for those

that servants are to thee.

14 O with thy tender mercies, Lord,

us early satisfy;

So we rejoice shall all our days,

and still be glad in thee.

1 Lord, thou hast been our dwelling-place

in generations all.

2 Before thou ever hadst brought forth

the mountains great or small;

Ere ever thou hadst formed the earth,

and all the world abroad;

Ev’n thou from everlasting art

to everlasting God.

3 Thou dost unto destruction

man that is mortal turn;

And unto them thou say’st, Again,

ye sons of men, return.

4 Because a thousand years appear

no more before thy sight

Than yesterday, when it is past,

or than a watch by night.

5 As with an overflowing flood

thou carry’st them away:

They like a sleep are, like the grass

that grows at morn are they.

6 At morn it flourishes and grows,

cut down at ev’n doth fade.

7 For by thine anger we’re consumed,

thy wrath makes us afraid.

10 Wilt thou show wonders to the dead?

shall they rise, and thee bless?

11 Shall in the grave thy love be told?

in death thy faithfulness?

12 Shall thy great wonders in the dark,

or shall thy righteousness

Be known to any in the land

of deep forgetfulness?

13 But, Lord, to thee I cried; my pray’r

at morn prevent shall thee.

14 Why, Lord, dost thou cast off my soul,

and hid’st thy face from me?

15 Distressed am I, and from my youth

I ready am to die;

Thy terrors I have borne, and am

distracted fearfully.

16 The dreadful fierceness of thy wrath

quite over me doth go:

Thy terrors great have cut me off,

they did pursue me so.

17 For round about me ev’ry day,

like water, they did roll;

And, gathering together, they

have compassed my soul.

18 My friends thou hast put far from me,

and him that did me love;

And those that mine acquaintance were

to darkness didst remove.

1 Not unto us, Lord, not to us,

but do thou glory take

Unto thy name, ev’n for thy truth,

and for thy mercy’s sake.

2 O wherefore should the heathen say,

Where is their God now gone?

3 But our God in the heavens is,

what pleased him he hath done.

4 Their idols silver are and gold,

work of men’s hands they be.

5 Mouths have they, but they do not speak;

and eyes, but do not see;

6 Ears have they, but they do not hear;

noses, but savor not;

7 Hands, feet, but handle not, nor walk;

nor speak they through their throat.

8 Like them their makers are, and all

on them their trust that build.

9 O Isr’el, trust thou in the Lord,

he is their help and shield.

10 O Aaron’s house, trust in the Lord,

their help and shield is he.

11 Ye that fear God, trust in the Lord,

their help and shield he’ll be.

that puts his trust in thee.

3 Sith unto thee I daily cry,

be merciful to me.

4 Rejoice thy servant’s soul; for, Lord,

I lift my soul to thee.

and ready to forgive;

And rich in mercy, all that call

upon thee to relieve.

6 Hear, Lord, my pray’r; unto the voice

of my request attend:

7 In troublous times I’ll call on thee;

for thou wilt answer send.

8 Lord, there is none among the gods

that may with thee compare;

And like the works which thou hast done,

not any work is there.

his saving health abroad.

3 Among the heathen nations

his glory do declare;

And unto all the people show

his works that wondrous are.

4 For great’s the Lord, and greatly he

is to be magnified;

Yea, worthy to be feared is he

above all gods beside.

5 For all the gods are idols dumb,

which blinded nations fear;

But our God is the Lord, by whom

the heav’ns created were.

6 Great honor is before his face,

and majesty divine;

Strength is within his holy place,

and there doth beauty shine.

For they confounded are, and shamed,

that seek to do me wrong.
