PSALM XXIII.

1 My shepherd is the living Lord,
Nothing therefore I need ;

In pastures fair, near pleasant streams,
He setteth me to feed.

2 He shall convert and glad my soul,
And bring my mind in frame,
To walk in paths of righteousness,
For his most holy Name.

3 Yea, though I walk in vale of death, Yet will I fear no ill:

Thy rod and staff do comfort me,
And thou art with me still.

4 And in the presence of my foes
My table thou shalt spread;
Thou wilt fill full my cup; and thou
Annointed hast my head.

5 Through all my life thy favour is
So frankly shew'd to me,
That in thy house for evermore
My dwelling place shall be.

PSALM XXV.

1 I lift my heart to thee,

My God and guide most just:
Oh! suffer me to take no shame,

For in thee do I trust.

2 Let not my foes rejoice,

Nor make a scorn of me;
And let them not be overthrown,
That put their trust in thee.

3 But shame shall them befal,
Who harm them wrongfully;
Therefore thy paths and thy right ways
Unto me, Lord, descry.

4 Direct me in thy truth,

And teach me, Lord, I pray ; Thou art my Saviour, and my God, On thee I wait alway.

PSALM XXX.

1 All laud and praise with heart and voice, O Lord, I give to thee;

Who did'st not make my foes rejoice,
But hast exalted me.

2 O Lord my God, to thee I cry'd
In all my pain and grief;

Thou gav'st an ear, and did'st provide
To ease me with relief.

3 Thou,Lord,hast brought my soul from hell, And thou the same didst save

From them that in the pit do dwell,
And keep'st me from the grave.

4 Sing praise, ye Saints, that prove and see
The goodness of the Lord;
In honour of his Majesty
Rejoice with one accord.

To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
Immortal glory be,

As was, and is, and shall be still
To all Eternity.

PSALM XXXIII.

1 Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice, It is a seemly sight,

That upright men, with thankful voice, Should praise the Lord of right.

2 Praise ye the Lord with harp; and sing To him with Psaltery;

With ten-stringed instruments sounding,
Praise ye the Lord most high.

3 Sing to the Lord a song most new,
With courage give him praise;
For why-his word is ever true,
His works, and all his ways.

4 Both judgement, equity, and right,
He ever lov'd, and' will;

And with his gifts he doth delight
The earth throughout to fill.

To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
All glory be therefore,
As in beginning was, is now,
And shall be evermore.

PSALM XL.

1 I waited long, and sought the Lord,
And patiently did bear;
At length to me he did accord
My voice and cry to hear.

2 He brought me from the dreadful pit, Out of the mire and clay;

Upon a rock he set my feet,

And he did guide my way.

3 To me he taught a psalm of praise,
Which I must shew abroad;

And sing new songs of thanks always
Unto the Lord our God.

4 When all the folk these things shall see,
As people much afraid,
Then they unto the Lord will flee,
And trust upon his aid.

To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
The God whom we adore,

Be Glory, as it was, is now,
And shall be evermore.

PSALM XLIII.

1 Judge and defend my cause, O Lord,
'Gainst them that evil be;

From wicked and deceitful men,
O Lord deliver me.

2 For of my strength thou art the God,
Why am I put from thee?
Why walk I heavily, whilst that
My foe oppresseth me?

3 O Lord, send out thy light and truth,
And lead me with thy grace;
Which may conduct me to thy bill,
And to thy dwelling place.

4 Then shall I to thy altar go,
With joy to worship there;
And on my harp give thanks to thee,
O God, my God most dear.

PSALM LI.

1 Make new my heart within my breast, And frame it to thy holy will; And let thy spirit in me rest,

Which may my soul with comfort fill.

2 Cast me not, Lord, out from thy sight,
But speedily my torments end:
Take not from me thy Holy Spirit,
Which may from dangers me defend.
