WIth troubles prest and drown'd in grief I called for relief When God unto my help appear'd And my Petition heard 2. Lord save me from their cruell lies Who would my life surprize Make not my soule their envies bait To perish by deceit 3. What vengeance doth to Thee belong O false and perjur'd tongue 4. Sharp arrowes and a quenchlesse fire Shall one day be thy hire 5. Wo unto me constrain'd to dwell So far from Israel That I in Mesech sojourne must And Tents of Kedar trust 6. My Soule this long time doth converse With dispositions fierce Who shunned have like some disease The happy fruits of peace 7. To quench wars flame and lessen strife I labour'd all my life But They when Treaties were my care For lasting war prepare PSAL. CXXI Sing this as the Prayer after the Commandements 1. UP to the Hills I lift mine eyes From whence my help and comfort rise 2. My safety from the Lord doth spring Who made the world and every thing 3. Thy foot from falling He protects Nor Slumbers He nor thee neglects 4. Behold that Lord who Israel keeps Unweary'd is and never sleeps 5.

I Was right glad and joyfull made When They unto me said Let us unto God's House repaire And worship Him with pray'r 2. Oblest Ierusalem our feet Within Thy Gates shall meet 3. Who builded like a City art United in each part 4. To Thee the Tribes of God ascend Their praises to commend And by their zeale the rest enflame To blesse their Makers Name 5.

NOw Israel This truth may gladly tell But that the Lord Did help to us afford 2 If He our side With strength had not supply'd When banding foes Against our safety rose 3. Their kindled ire Had swallow'd us like fire 4. The angry flood Had then above us stood Who by the streame Quite overwhelm'd had been 5. And swelling waves Become our timeless graves Whil'st ore our soule The billowes proudly rowle 6. Blest be His aid Who us their prey not made 7. Our resku'd soules Like late-entangled fowles Escaped are Out of the deadly snare Broke is the net And we at freedom set 8. In His great Name Who Heav'n and earth did frame Our ruin stay'd And help on Him is lay'd Another of the same 1. NOw Israel may truly say In honour of this day Had not the Lord our quarrell took All help had us forsook 2. Yea had not God our battailes fought When men our ruin sought And when our close conspiring foes Against our safety rose 3. The wrath which in their breasts did strive Had buried us alive Consuming both our Place and Name In their revenges flame 4. Our Life and what we most esteem Had perisht in this stream 5. And in the furious billowes womb Beheld our glories tomb 6. But let our God be alwayes prais'd Who thus from death us rais'd Nor made us subject to their pow'r Who sought us to devour 7. From danger resku'd is our soule Like some net-scaping fowle So broken is the bloody snare And we deliver'd are 8. Our present help and hopes of aid In God alone are lay'd 'T is He who made both Heav'n and earth That gave our comforts birth PSAL. CXXV 1. WHo God their hope and trust account Are like faire Sions Mount Whose head unmoved and unshook Abides the tempests stroak 2. As rising Mountaines Salem's fense By their circumference So God His people guards throughout And circles them about 3. The wicked shall not by their pow'r The righteous Lot devour Least they the heathens sins partake Who them their vassall make 4 Do good O Lord unto the just Who in Thy goodnes trust And those that are in heart upright Continue in Thy sight 5. But as for such who turn'd aside To crooked waies back-slide The Lord their judgments shall encrease But Iacob blesse with peace PSAL. CXXVI 1. WHen God did cast a gratious eye On Sions misery And did his captiv'd Peoples state To liberty translate This unexpected safety wrought On us such wonder brought Our freedome like a vision seem'd And we like them that dream'd 2. Joy fill'd our mouth triumphant Songs Did exercise our tongues That Heathens with amazement said God hath This gladness made 3. The Lord who crownes His servants faith Great things effected hath And makes us publish through the earth The causes of our mirth 4. Lord turne our bondage end our woe Let Thy full me cyes flow As waters from the fountaines mouth Or Rivers in the South 5. They who before in teares have sow'n And only sorrowes know'n Shall so their future hopes employ That they may reap in joy 6. He who good
Lord obey PSAL. CXLV Sing this as Psalme 100. 1. I Thee extoll my God and King And of Thy Name for ever sing 2. I Thee will bless through all my daies And yield Thy Name eternall praise 3.

I will Thy glory celebrate Thy wond'rous works Majestick State 6. Thy acts of terrour and of fame All men shall speak and I proclaime 7. They shall abundantly profess Thy goodness and Thy righteousness 8. Whose grace and full compassions flow To mercy swift to anger slow 9. God's goodness every where extends His mercy all His works transcends 10. All things O Lord Thou did'st create And Saints Thy praise shall celebrate 11. Their tongues Thy Kingdom 's rule make know'n By them Thy glorious acts are show'n 12. That all the Sons of men may see Thy mighty pow'r and Majestie 13. Thy Kingdom doth for ever last When men decay and time is past 14. God doth uphold all such as fall And men cast downe from ruin call 15. The eyes of all on Thee attend Who in due season meat do'st send 16. Thy open hand when need requires Doth satisfie their just desires 17. The Lord is right in all His waies In Holiness His works He layes 18. The Lord is good and nigh to all Who faithfully upon Him call 19. He their desire will satisfie Who feare Him and regard their cry 20. Saves all that love Him from annoy But all the wicked will destroy 21. Therefore my mouth to speake His praise Shall lowd and thankfull accents raise And let all flesh whom He did frame For ever bless His Holy Name PSAL. CXLVI 1. TTo God my soule His praises give And bless Him whil'st I live 2. I will to Him my thankes up send Untill my being end 3. Put not in Princes any trust Nor in the Sons of dust Who nor themselves nor others save From the devouring grave 4. Soon as man breathless doth remaine He turnes to earth againe And as his time of life expires So perish his desires 5. O therefore happy he whose faith On God relyance hath Who makes the fear of Him his scope And object of his hope 6. He Heav'n and earth and Sea did frame With all that Those containe And when their frame is quite defac't His truth shall ever last 7. He doth the wronged help to right Who are opprest by might Feeds those that are to want expos'd And hath the Captives loos'd 8. He to the blind restores their eyes He makes the fall'n to rise He upon such bestowes his care Who just and faithfull are 9. The Lord all strangers doth receive And fatherless releive When wicked men are overthrowne And all their hopes cast downe 10. The Lord thy God O Sion reignes His glory still remaines Then to thy everlasting King Eternall praises sing PSAL. CXLVII 1. PRaise ye the Lord a pleasant thing It is His praise to sing 2. God ruin'd Salem doth repaire Whose out-casts gather'd are 3. He heales and binds the broken heart Relieves the wounded's smart 4. The sparkling Starres He numbers all And by their names doth call 5. Great is our Lord and strong His might His Wisdome infinite 6. He doth the meek exalt and crowne But cast's the wicked downe 7. To God the Lord so good so great Your thankfull hymnes repeat And to the Harpes melodious string His constant praises sing 8. Who heavens face with vapour shrowds And covers it with clouds Who powres his raine on earth below And makes the Mountaines grow 9. He gives his food unto the beast And from their airy nest When the young ravens to Him cry Feeds Them abundantly 10. He not delights in strength of horse Nor values humane force 11. But those who make His feare their scope And in His mercy hope 12. Ierusalem O praise the Lord Sion Thy God record 13. Who barres thy gates to give thee rest And hath thy children blest 14. He maketh in thy borders peace Fills thee with cornes increase 15. His wing'd commands most swiftly run And soon as said are done 16. He giveth like the wooll his snowes Hoare frost like ashes strowes 17. Casts forth his Ice like morsells roll'd Who can withstand His cold 18. He sendeth out His word and Law Which melts them to a thaw He causeth His strong wind to blow And makes the waters flow 19. His word He doth to Iacob shew Makes him His judgment know And to his chosen Israel He doth His Statutes tell 20. He with no Nation so did deale Nor thus His Love reveale Who nor His judgments knew nor word Therefore Praise ye the Lord. PSAL. CXLVIII To the proper Tune 1. PRaise God from Heaven high Who sits above the sky 2. Ye glorious Angels all Ye Hosts Celestiall 3. Ye Sun and Moon Both Night and Noon Ye Stars of light His praise recite 4.

All that earth's bosome keeps Ye dragons and all deepes 8. Fire haile the falling snow The furious winds that blow Stormes that fulfill His sacred will And serve His word Praise ye the Lord. 9. Mountaines that touch the sky Ye Hills which lower ly All trees that fruitfull are The Cedars tall and faire 10. Beasts which the field Or pastures yeild Each creeping thing And bird of wing 11. Kings which the earth do sway People who them obey Princes of royall birth And Judges of the earth 12. Young men and maids Old men and babes 13. Let them proclaime His awfull name His Name doth all excell In earth or Heaven that dwell 14 He will His People raise Of all His Saints the praise Ev'n Iacob deare His care most neare Joyn'd in accord Praise ye the Lord. PSAL. CXLIX Sing this as Psalme 119. 1. PRaise ye the Lord New Anthems bring Which ye to God may sing And let the quire of Saints His praise In their assembly raise 2. Let Israel in Him rejoyce Who form'd him with his voyce Let all the Sons from Sion spring Be joyfull in their King 3. Let them with Dance and Pipe proclaime The glory of His Name Let them sing praises with the Harp With Timbrell shrill and sharp 4. For in His people He delights Who celebrate His Rites And those with meekness who abound Are with salvation crown'd 5. Let Saints with glory raise their heads And sing upon their beds 6. Let His high praise who rules the skies Their voices exercise And in their hand a Two-edg'd sword Be put to act His word 7. For judgment 'gainst the Heathen bent And peoples punishment 8. Their captive Kings in chaines confin'd With manacles to bind And their rebellious Nobles lead In iron fettered 9. To execute that heavy wrath His judgment threat'ned hath
