A51669	The spiritual vvorship exalted. Or A treatise concerning the worship and service of God shewing how uncapable men are in their natural and unconverted state of worshipping and serving God acceptably in this Gospel day. And that it is the light, grace and spirit of Christ revealed in men, which doth renew, fit, prepare and [q]ualifie them for performing that pure spiritual and acceptable worship which was instituted by our Lord, and practiced by his disciples and followers. As also several other things here inserted, worthy of observation. By a lover of truth, and wel-wisher of the souls of all men, George Myers.	Myers, George, 1653?-1714.	1687 (1687)	Wing M3174; ESTC R213894	43,291	111

in_o they_o before_o he_o mention_n sing_v or_o make_v melody_n to_o the_o lord_n and_o also_o the_o same_o apostle_n give_v a_o account_n what_o he_o himself_o will_v do_v upon_o this_o account_n say_v i_o will_v sing_v with_o the_o spirit_n and_o i_o will_v sing_v with_o the_o understanding_n also_o 1_o cor._n 14.15_o as_o for_o the_o song_n of_o wicked_a vain_a and_o ungodly_a people_n who_o daily_a rebel_n against_o the_o light_n and_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o the_o pure_a motion_n and_o conception_n thereof_o in_o themselves_o we_o do_v no_o where_n find_v that_o such_o have_v ever_o obtain_v divine_a acceptance_n in_o their_o excercise_n therein_o whilst_o they_o have_v continue_v in_o vanity_n and_o wickedness_n for_o the_o lord_n by_o his_o servant_n have_v still_o testify_v against_o they_o concern_v israel_n he_o say_v take_v thou_o away_o from_o i_o the_o noise_n of_o thy_o song_n for_o i_o will_v not_o hear_v the_o melody_n of_o thy_o viol_n amos_n 5.23_o also_o i_o will_v turn_v your_o feast_n into_o mourn_v and_o all_o your_o song_n into_o lamentation_n amos_n 8.10_o and_o of_o tyrus_n he_o say_v i_o will_v cause_v the_o noise_n of_o thy_o song_n to_o cease_v and_o the_o sound_n of_o thy_o harp_n shall_v no_o more_o be_v hear_v ezek._n 26.13_o and_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o all_o this_o even_o sin_n and_o iniquity_n for_o that_o have_v always_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o dis-union_n and_o separation_n between_o god_n and_o man._n object_n it_o be_v probable_a some_o may_v allege_v the_o say_n of_o the_o apostle_n james_n be_v any_o among_o you_o afflict_a let_v he_o pray_v be_v any_o merry_n let_v he_o sing_v psalm_n and_o will_v infer_v from_o thence_o that_o if_o any_o be_v incline_v to_o mirth_n they_o may_v sing_v by_o the_o apostle_n direction_n answ_n in_o answer_v thereunto_o i_o say_v that_o there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o mirth_n the_o one_o be_v a_o mirth_n or_o joy_n that_o spring_v up_o in_o the_o heart_n and_o soul_n of_o god_n people_n be_v touch_v and_o overcome_v with_o the_o love_n and_o presence_n of_o god_n as_o david_n say_v in_o thy_o presence_n be_v fullness_n of_o joy_n at_o thy_o right_a hand_n be_v pleasure_n for_o evermore_o psal_n 16.11_o also_o in_o isaiah_n behold_v my_o servant_n shall_v sing_v for_o joy_n of_o heart_n isa_n 65.14_o and_o christ_n say_v i_o will_v see_v you_o again_o and_o your_o heart_n shall_v rejoice_v and_o your_o joy_n no_o man_n take_v from_o you_o john_n 16.22_o the_o other_o sort_n of_o mirth_n or_o joy_n be_v the_o joy_n of_o wicked_a and_o sinful_a man_n or_o that_o mirth_n which_o arise_v from_o a_o vain_a foolish_a and_o wanton_a mind_n the_o apostle_n james_n be_v so_o far_o from_o direct_v such_o to_o sing_v psalm_n that_o in_o the_o same_o epistle_n he_o tell_v they_o of_o mourn_v and_o heaviness_n say_v cleanse_v your_o hand_n you_o sinner_n and_o purify_v your_o heart_n you_o double_v mind_v be_v afflisted_n and_o mourn_v let_v your_o laughter_n be_v turn_v into_o mourn_v and_o your_o joy_n into_o heaviness_n james_n 4.8_o 9_o also_o solomon_n speak_v of_o this_o mirth_n and_o say_v in_o laughter_n the_o heart_n be_v sorrowful_a and_o the_o end_n of_o that_o mirth_n be_v heaviness_n prov._n 14.13_o again_o he_o say_v the_o heart_n of_o fool_n be_v in_o the_o house_n of_o mirth_n eccles_n 7.4_o also_o the_o prophet_n speak_v concern_v israel_n that_o be_v apostatise_v and_o go_v from_o the_o lord_n and_o the_o counsel_n of_o his_o spirit_n among_o other_o thing_n say_v i_o will_v also_o cause_v her_o mirth_n to_o cease_v hosea_n 2.11_o thus_o then_o as_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o there_o be_v two_o sort_n of_o mirth_n or_o joy_n and_o that_o the_o mirth_n or_o joy_n of_o the_o wicked_a be_v but_o vanity_n therefore_o we_o may_v conclude_v that_o the_o mirth_n speak_v of_o by_o the_o apostle_n be_v that_o true_a mirth_n or_o joy_n that_o arise_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o god_n people_n be_v secret_o touch_v and_o overcome_v with_o the_o love_n and_o goodness_n of_o god_n and_o those_o who_o be_v witness_n of_o this_o true_a mirth_n and_o joy_n may_v sing_v psalm_n according_a to_o the_o apostle_n direction_n upon_o that_o account_n object_n some_o may_v object_v and_o say_v that_o although_o the_o lord_n disow_v vain_a mirth_n yet_o david_n be_v psalm_n be_v very_o good_a and_o useful_a and_o may_v be_v sing_v by_o those_o profess_v christianity_n answ_n although_o david_n psalm_n be_v very_o good_a and_o useful_a yet_o it_o do_v not_o therefore_o follow_v that_o any_o can_v sing_v they_o acceptable_o unless_o they_o be_v in_o some_o measure_n endue_v with_o that_o spirit_n of_o god_n david_n be_v endue_v with_o and_o be_v under_o the_o fence_n and_o exercise_v of_o what_o they_o speak_v it_o be_v not_o only_o the_o repeat_n or_o sing_v over_o of_o good_a word_n that_o the_o lord_n look_v at_o as_o have_v be_v before_o observe_v but_o it_o be_v the_o frame_n and_o disposition_n of_o their_o soul_n and_o spirit_n from_o who_o those_o word_n do_v actual_o proceed_v there_o be_v no_o question_n but_o the_o singer_n of_o israel_n can_v express_v themselves_o with_o great_a curiosity_n and_o draw_v out_o their_o note_n very_o exact_o but_o what_o signify_v all_o that_o so_o long_o as_o it_o be_v not_o real_a but_o only_o formal_a and_o that_o their_o heart_n be_v adulterate_v from_o the_o lord_n to_o what_o purpose_n can_v any_o rational_o suppose_v it_o to_o be_v for_o people_n to_o sing_v david_n psalm_n in_o saul_n spirit_n or_o for_o those_o who_o spend_v their_o precious_a time_n in_o wickedness_n folly_n and_o vanity_n and_o do_v very_o seldom_o think_v of_o divine_a and_o spiritual_a matter_n or_o of_o the_o eternal_a and_o irrevocable_a decree_n that_o must_v in_o one_o day_n be_v pass_v upon_o they_o to_o sing_v thus_o i_o be_o weary_a with_o my_o groan_n all_o the_o night_n make_v i_o my_o bed_n to_o swim_v i_o water_v my_o couch_n with_o tear_n my_o heart_n be_v like_a wax_n it_o be_v melt_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o my_o bowel_n my_o heart_n be_v not_o haughty_a nor_o my_o eye_n lofty_a my_o soul_n be_v even_o as_o a_o wean_a child_n i_o have_v hate_v the_o congregation_n of_o ev_n l-doer_n and_o will_v not_o sit_v with_o the_o wicked_a i_o have_v set_v the_o lord_n always_o before_o i_o my_o heart_n be_v endict_v a_o good_a matter_n i_o have_v remember_v thy_o name_n o_o lord_n and_o have_v keep_v thy_o law._n thy_o statute_n have_v be_v my_o song_n in_o the_o house_n of_o my_o pilgrimage_n thy_o testimony_n have_v i_o take_v as_o a_o heritage_n for_o ever_o for_o they_o be_v the_o rejoice_v of_o my_o heart_n lord_n i_o have_v love_v the_o habitation_n of_o thy_o house_n and_o the_o place_n where_o thy_o honour_n dwell_v these_o be_v david_n word_n and_o it_o be_v very_o likely_a that_o he_o be_v a_o witness_n of_o what_o he_o speak_v in_o these_o respect_n but_o then_o for_o any_o to_o undertake_v to_o sing_v they_o before_o the_o lord_n because_o david_n speak_v they_o and_o not_o because_o they_o be_v witness_n of_o such_o thing_n in_o themselves_o nor_o of_o the_o work_n and_o influence_n of_o the_o grace_n and_o spirit_n of_o christ_n by_o which_o these_o thing_n be_v effect_v such_o singer_n will_v not_o meet_v with_o divine_a acceptance_n in_o such_o performance_n nor_o be_v sing_v in_o the_o least_o suitable_a to_o their_o state_n and_o condition_n but_o rather_o mourn_v and_o lamentation_n because_o of_o sin_n and_o transgression_n howbeit_o still_o although_o the_o song_n of_o the_o wicked_a shall_v be_v turn_v into_o lamentation_n and_o their_o mirth_n into_o heaviness_n in_o one_o day_n if_o they_o report_v not_o yet_o the_o righteous_a shall_v rejoice_v and_o be_v exceed_o glad_a in_o the_o lord_n and_o shall_v sing_v to_o his_o praise_n and_o glory_n in_o the_o congregation_n of_o his_o people_n as_o david_n say_v sing_v unto_o the_o lord_n o_o you_o saint_n of_o his_o
