し 4 My hope, my steadfast trust, That thou, my GoD, art good and just, 5 Whate'er events betide, Thy wisdom times them all; Then, LORD, thy servant safely hide 6 The brightness of thy face And, as thy mercies still increase, 7 How great thy mercies are To such as fear thy Name, • Which thou, for those that trust thy care, Dost to the world proclaim! 8 O all ye saints, the LORD With eager love pursue; Who to the just will help afford, And give the proud their due. 9 Ye that on God rely, Courageously proceed; For he will still your hearts supply PSALM 27.

Psalm of David. 小 1 HE 's blest, whose sins have pardon gain'd, 2 No sooner I my wound disclosed, The harden'd sinner shall confound; Entry L LLL LL 2624 4 His saints, that have perform'd his laws, L PSALM 28. From the xxxiii. Psalm of David. PART I. C. M. L 2 Let harps, and psalteries, and lutes, And new-made songs of loud applause 3 For faithful is the word of God; 4 By his almighty word at first, The heavenly arch was rear'd; 5 Let earth, and all that dwell therein, For, when he spake the word, 't was made, 1 WHATE'ER the mighty LORD decrees, 2 How happy then are they, to whom Whom he, from all the world besides, 3 Our soul on GOD with patience waits; Then, LORD, let still our hearts rejoice, 4 The riches of thy mercy, LORD, Do thou to us extend d; Since we, for all we want or wish PSALM 29. From the xxxiv. Psalm of David. PART I C. M. L 1 THROUGH all the changing scenes of life, The praises of my GoD shall still 2 Of his deliv'rance I will boast, And charm their griefs to rest. 13 3 O magnify the LORD with me, When in distress to him I call'd, 4 The Angel of the LORD encamps Who on his succor trust. 5 O make but trial of his love, Experience will decide How blest they are, and only they, Who in his truth confide. 6 Fear him, ye saints; and you will then Make you his service your delight, PART II. C. M. 1 APPROACH, ye children of the LORD, I'll teach you the true discipline 2 Let him who length of life desires, And prosp'rous days would see, انا From sland'ring language keep his tongue, 3 The crooked paths of vice decline, Establish peace, where 't is begun; 4 The LORD from heaven beholds the just With favorable eyes; And, when distress'd, his gracious ear 5 But turns his wrathful look on those To cut them off, and from the earth 6 Deliv'rance to his saints he gives, 7 Great troubles may afflict the just, 8 The wicked, from their wickedness, Whilst righteous men, whom they detest, 9 For GoD preserves the souls of those To them, and their posterity, 14:45 From the xxxvi. Psalm of David. 1 O LORD, thy mercy, my sure hope, 2 Thy justice like the hills remains, 3 Since of thy goodness all partake, With what assurance should the just 4 Such guests shall to thy courts be led, 5 With thee the springs of life remain O let thy saints thy favor gain, To upright hearts thy truth display. PSALM 31. From the xxxvii. Psalm of David. PART I II. 2. 1 THOUGH wicked men grow rich or great, 2 Depend on GOD, and him obey, Shall all thy earnest wishes grant. 4 With quiet mind on God depend, Nor envy the success of crime; Who trust on him and wait his time. |
