labour he pursues Till the approach of resting night 24 How manifold and numberless Are thy great wondrous works O Lord In wisdom thou hast made them all Earth's with thy plenteous riches stor'd 25 So is this great and spacious sea Numberless things there swim or creep Some small some of vast magnitude Made by thee to dwell in the deep 26 The Ships by man for Commerce made Go there and make the deep their way There is the great Leviathan Which thou hast made therein to play 27 On thee the bounteous Lord of life All things do daily wait that live That thou sufficing sustenance In season due to them may'st give 28 They gladly gather and receive That which thou giv'st to them for food Thou openest thy liberal hand And they are fill'd by thee with good 29 Thou hid'st thy lightsome quickening face Then sick or troubled they decay They die and to their dust return When as thou tak'st their breath away 30 Thou sendest forth thy vital spirit And they are as it were new made With beauteous verdure thou renew'st The face of earth which seem'd decay'd 31 But God's own Glory endless is It never fades or waxeth old The Lord with joy and pleasure doth His own great perfect works behold 32 His very looks do make the earth As a thing frightened to quake His touch doth make the steadfast hills Forthwith as mov'd to smoak and shake 33 I will sing praise unto the Lord The longest day I have to live And while I any being have To God I 'le joyful praises give 34 My meditation of him shall Sweeten my thoughts when they are sad And in the way to endless joy In God alone I will be glad 35 Let sinners be consum'd from earth And let the wicked no more be My soul bless thou the blessed God All Saints the glorious Lord praise ye PSALM CV 1 O Give ye thanks unto the Lord Trust ye and call upon his name And that all people may them know His deeds do you to them proclaim 2 Sing unto him to him sing Psalms Of all his wondrous works talk ye And let his great and holy name Your joyful glorying still be 3 Let all their hearts that seek the Lord Be ever joyful in his grace 4 Seek ye the Lord and his great strength Evermore seek his pleased face 5 Keep ye in constant memory The strange and great works he hath done His wonders and the judgments which His mouth to us hath truly shewn 6 O ye his servant Abraham's seed His chosen Israel's Off-spring 7 His judgments are in all the earth He is the Lord our God and King 8 He keeps in faithful memory His Covenant it shall ever stand To thousand generations His word to keep he did command 9 Which Covenant he with Abraham made And he to Isaac gave his oath 10 This Law and endless Covenant He un to Israel sealed hath 11 Saying I 'le give thee Canaan's Land Your lot of heritage is there 12 When they but few yea very few In it and utter strangers were 13 When they from land to land did go Through divers Kingdoms oft remov'd 14 He suffer'd none to do them wrong But mighty Kings for them reprov'd 15 Saying to those that sit on Thrones Let no proud or presumptuous arm Touch my anointed holy Ones Nor do my sacred Prophets harm 16 He call'd for Famine on the land And brake their vital staff of bread 17 But did before them send a man By whom they after should be fed 18 Joseph was for a servant sold His feet with hurtful fetters bound 19 In Irons laid till God's Word came And tryed he was blameless found 20 The King then sent and loosed him The People's Ruler set him free 21 He made him Lord of all his house And Ruler of his Land to be 22 To bind his Princes at his will Wisdom his Senators to teach 23 Then Israel into-Egypt came And Jacob to Ham's Land did reach 24 His people he did much increase Made stronger than their enemies 25 Whose hearts he turn'd to hate his flock By craft they did their hurt devise 26 He sent his servant Moses then And Aaron chosen did command 27 Among them they his signs did shew And many wonders in Ham's land 28 He darkness sent and made it dark And all things did his word obey 29 He turn'd their waters into blood And he thereby their fish did slay 30 Their land in swarms did bring forth frogs Even in the Chambers of their Kings 31 His word all sorts of flies and lice In all their Country quickly brings 32 For rain he gave them hurtful hail And flaming fire was in their land 33 Their Vines and their Fig-trees he smote Their other trees brake by his hand 34 He spake the word the Locusts came And Caterpillars did abound 35 Herbs of the land they eat up all Devour'd the fruits of all the ground 36 He smote the first-born of the land Till all their chiefest strength was gone 37 With gold and silver brought them forth And weak in all their Tribes were none 38 Egypt was glad when they were gone For their great fear did on them light 39 For covering he did spread a cloud And fire to lead them all by night 40 The people askt and he brought Quails With bread of heav'n he filled them 41 Waters gusht from the opened Rocks And ran in desarts like a stream 42 For on his holy promise he And on his servant Abraham thought 43 With joy his people his Elect With singing gladness forth he brought 44 And he the Lord of all them gave The wicked heathens fruitful lands And they thenceforth inherited The labour of their neighbours hands 45 That hating heathen wickedness They might observe his holy Word And his just statutes might obey All men give praise unto the Lord. PSALM CVI. 1 PRaise ye the Lord to him give thanks He 's good his mercy is endless 2 Who can describe his mighty acts Who can all his due praise express 3 Blessed are they that judgment keep Who justice practice constantly 4 Lord mind me as thou dost thine own With thy salvation visit me 5 That I may see thy chosen's good And in thy nation's joy rejoyce And with thy blest inheritance May praise thee with a glorying voice 6 We with our sinful ancestors By sin from thy just Laws have gone Iniquity we did commit And very wickedly have done 7 Our fathers did not understand Thy wondrous plagues which Egypt struck Thy many mercies they forgot At the Red-Sea did thee provoke 8 Nevertheless he saved them Even for his own supream Names-sake And that his own Almighty power He known and manifest might make 9 The Red-Sea also he rebuk'd And it was dryed up and fled And he them through the dryed depths As after through the desart led 10 From the pursuing hand of him That hated them he did them save And he did from the enemies hand Redeem
