Scottish Metrical Psalm 1650: 

Sing Psalm 139:1-10 (Tune: Belmont)

1 O Lord, thou hast me searched and known.

2 Thou know’st my sitting down,

And rising up; yea, all my thoughts

afar to thee are known.

3 My footsteps, and my lying down,

thou compassest always;

Thou also most entirely art

acquaint with all my ways.

4 For in my tongue, before I speak,

not any word can be,

But altogether, lo, O Lord,

it is well known to thee.

5 Behind, before, thou hast beset,

and laid on me thine hand.

6 Such knowledge is too strange for me,

too high to understand.

7 From thy Sp’rit whither shall I go?

or from thy presence fly?

8 Ascend I heav’n, lo, thou art there;

there, if in hell I lie.

9 Take I the morning wings, and dwell

in utmost parts of sea;

10 Ev’n there, Lord, shall thy hand me lead,

thy right hand hold shall me.

Sing Psalm 1:1-6 (Tune: St. Peter) Scottish Metrical Psalm

1 That man hath perfect blessedness,

who walketh not astray

In counsel of ungodly men,

nor stands in sinners’ way,

Nor sitteth in the scorner’s chair:

2 But placeth his delight

Upon God’s law, and meditates

on his law day and night.

3 He shall be like a tree that grows

near planted by a river,

Which in his season yields his fruit,

and his leaf fadeth never:

And all he doth shall prosper well

4 The wicked are not so;

But like they are unto the chaff,

which wind drives to and fro.

5 In judgment therefore shall not stand

such as ungodly are;

Nor in th’ assembly of the just

shall wicked men appear.

6 For why? the way of godly men

unto the Lord is known:

Whereas the way of wicked men

shall quite be overthrown.
