reliefe put far And those who my acquaintance were Conceal'd or lost my sight forbear PSAL. LXXXIX Sing this as Psalme 51. 1. MY Song thy mercies shall make know'n Thy truth to all succession 2. For They built up for ever last And are in Heav'n establish'd fast 3. I to my chosen David sware And did by Covenant declare 4. I stablish will thy seed alone And build to Thee a lasting Throne 5. The Heav'ns Thy wonders praise confesse And Saints procIaime thy faithfulnesse For who in earth or heaven are 6. Whose might can with the Lord compare 7. Fear'd by His Saints by them implor'd And by His servants still ador'd 8. O Lord of Hosts who is so strong Whose word like thine endures so long 9. Thou rul'st the Seas that rage and rise Whose swelling wave becalmed lies 10. Thou Rahah brak'st like one that 's dead Thine arme thy foes hath scattered 11. The Heav'ns are Thine with earth's encrease And all the fulnesse growes from these 12. The North South thy pow'r did frame Tahor and Hermon praise thy Name 13 Thy mighty arme is lifted high Thy right hand full of Majesty 14. Thy Throne hath justice for its base Mercy and Truth before Thy face 15. Blessed are they who at Thy Feasts And in Thy presence are the guests 16. They all the day rejoyce in Thee In righteousnes exalted be 17. Thy strength and glory them adorne Whose favour shall lift up our horne 18. The Lord to us doth safety bring Thy Holy one remaines our King 19. In visions Thou to Him hast said I on my chosen help have lay'd 20. I have my servant David found With Oyle annointed Him crown'd 21. Confirm'd and strength'ned by my arme I will protect his life from harme 22. No enemy on Him exact Nor hurt him shall by wicked pact 23. His foes beat down before him fly And shall by plagues consumed dy 24. My mercy yet to him assur'd Shall in his glory be secur'd Second Part. 26. His right hand lifted ore the maine Shall to the in-land rivers reigne 26. He crying in his prayers shall My God and Rock and Father call 27. I 'le make him heire my first begot Above earth's Kings advance his lot 28. To Him my mercy nere shall wast My Covenant stand ever fast 29. His seed shall long endure his Throne Like Heav'ns unweary'd motion 30. But if His Sons my Law forsake 31. Or my Commands and Statutes break 32. My rod shall punish their neglect My hand with stripes their sin correct 33. Yet shall my love to him prevaile 34. My Covenant nor change nor faile 35. To David have I sworne that I My promise would not falsify 36. His seed shall governe whil'st the sun About the world his course doth run 37. And like the Moon establish'd be The faithfull pledg of my decree 38. But thine annointed now thy wrath Cast off and quite abhorred hath 39. Thou voyd hast made the Cov'nant seal'd Profan'd his crowne his Rule repeal'd 40. His Bulwarks broke his senses torne 41. Make him his neighbour's spoyle scorne 42. Thou strength'ned ha'st his foes right hand That he in battail cannot stand 44. His sword wants edge His glory 's gone And to the earth cast down his throne 45. Thou short'ned hast his youth His fame Obscur'd and cover'd is with shame 46. Lord wilt Thou ever from us turne Or shall like fire thine anger burne 47. Remember yet how short my dayes How vaine man's life how soon decaies 48. What mortall lives who shall not dy And in the pit of silence ly 49. Where are thy mercies Lord the faith Thy oath to David plighted hath 50. Remember Lord thy servants shame How mighty people us defame 51. Thinke how thy foes have us abus'd And thine Annointed's steps traduc'd 52. Yet shall my soul how ere opprest Say evermore The Lord be blest PSAL. XC Sing this as the Lamentation 1. O Lord Thou ha'st our refuge been All ages have thy mercies seene 2. Before the lofty hills were made Or earth's unmov'd foundation lay'd From everlasting Thou art God And wilt out live times period 3. Thou turn'st to dust the Sons of men Then say'st Returne to life agen 4. A thousand yeares in thy account But to a day with us amount Nor are extended in thy sight Beyond the watch of one short night 5. Our time runs on like rapid streams We vanish as forgotten dreams 6. Like grasse or morning flowres we spring Then wither in the evening 7. When Thou displeased art we wast And unto nothing come at last 8. Thou mark'st our deeds our sins of night Are alwayes open to thy sight Making the breach of thy pure Lawes Our death and swift destructions cause 9. From whence we suddenly waxe old Expiring like a tale that 's told 10. The common Age of mortall men Exceeds not Threescore yeares and ten And if to Fourscore they attaine Their life is but a length'ned paine Incessant sorrowes and disease Their faculties and vigour seize For soon cut off our dayes decay And suddenly we flie away 11. But who regards Thy heauy wrath Or of Thy feare true feeling hath Neither Thy judgements nor Thy love Can us unto repentance move 12. Lord so our dayes to number teach We may the end of wisedome reach And learne those errours to forget Which us in Thy displeasure set 13 Returne O Lord and now repent At our endured punishment How long wilt Thou thy help delay Or not remove our woes away 14. O satisfy our Soule with joyes To recompense Lifes past annoyes 15. Afford us comfort for those yeares We were enforc'd to spend in teares 16. Lord Let Thy glorious work appeare Thy servants from the dust to reare That all succeeding times may know What praises to thy Name we owe. 17. O let thy beames of favour shine On those who in death's shade have ly'n Grant that for which we prayers make And prosper all we undertake PSAL. XCI 1. WHo so in God's protection dwell Abide secure and well For shadow'd by th' Almighties care Both soul and body are 2. I therefore to the Lord will say Thou art my hope and stay Thou art my refuge my strong hold Who do'st my faith embold 3. He shall preserve Thee from the net Which cunning hunters set Protecting thee by His defense In times of Pestilence 4. He over thee His wings shall spread With safety covered And least temptation make thee yield His truth shall be thy shield 5. The gastly terrours of the night Shall not thy peace affright Nor arrowes which by day do kill Thy life with slaughter spill 6. No tainted aire or noysome Pest Thy dwelling shall infest No perills which at noon destroy Thy safety shall annoy 7. Though Thousands or ten thousands dy'd Thick falling by thy side Thou shalt unhurt and guarded stand From sicknesse on each hand 8. Thine eye the wicked shall behold Unto destruction sold 9. Yet them nor feares nor dangers shake
