Psalm 118:10-14

4. 10 All nations have surrounded me; their forces they deploy; But surely in Jehovah's name I will them all destroy. 5. 11 Yes, they have all surrounded me, surrounded to annoy; But surely in Jehovah's name I will them all destroy. 6. 12 Though they surrounded me like bees, like thorn fires soon they die, For surely in Jehovah's name destroy them all will I. 7. 13 Hard pressed, I was about to fall; the LORD gave help to me. 14 Jehovah is my strength and song and my salvation free.

Psalm 118: 1-9

1.	1 O praise the LORD, for he is good; his steadfast love endures. 2 O let all Israel now say, "His steadfast love endures." 3 O let the house of Aaron say, "His steadfast love endures." 4 Let those that fear the LORD now say, "His steadfast love endures."
2.	5 In my distress I sought the LORD; Jehovah answered me;    he set me in a spacious place, a place of liberty. 6 The mighty LORD is on my side; I will not be afraid;    for anything that man can do I will not be dismayed.
3.	7 The LORD is on my side with those who render help to me.    And so on all those hating me I my desire shall see. 8 O better far to trust the LORD than rest in aid of men. 9 Yes, better far to trust the LORD than rest in noble men. Tune: Materna (C M D) "America the Beautiful"

eternal truth attends thy word:
thy praise shall sound from shore to shore,

Psalm 116

I love the LORD, because He hears my pleading. He's heeded me; through life I'll call on Him. The cords of death and Sheol's terrors bound me; in deep distress I grief and trouble found. Then on the LORD's name in prayer I called: "You I implore, O LORD, deliver my soul!"

The LORD our God is merciful and righteous; gracious, the LORD the simple ones preserves. When I was low, to me He gave salvation. Turn back again, my soul, unto your rest, because the LORD has dealt well with you, because my helpless soul You rescued from death.

You saved my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling. Before the LORD I'll walk in lands of life. I have believed and said, "I am afflicted." I in despair confessed, "All men are false!" What shall I render now to the LORD for all His benefits upon me bestowed?

Salvation's cup I'll lift up in the LORD's name, vows to the LORD before His people pay. Observed by Him and precious in the LORD's sight appears the death of all His saints each one. O LORD, I am Your servant, Your slave. I am Your handmaid's son, for You set me free.

To You I'll bring my off'ring of thanksgiving; with sacrifice I'll call upon the LORD. I'll pay the vows I made unto Jehovah Before His people all, O may it be! Within His courts, the house of the LORD, in midst of you, Jerusalem! Praise the LORD!

Psalm 115

	1 Not to us, LORD, not to us, but to your name glory give,    for your steadfast love and grace, for your cov'nant faithfulness. 2 Why should heathen nations say, "Where now is their mighty God?"
	3 But our God in heaven is; he does all that pleases him; 4 their gods are of silver, gold, fashioned by the hands of men: 5 they have mouths but do not speak; they have eyes but do not see;
	6 they have ears but do not hear, noses have but do not smell; 7 they have hands but do not touch; they have feet but do not walk;    in their throat they make no sound. 8 Such, all who them make or trust.
	9  Israel, trust in the LORD--he's their help and he's their shield! 10 Aaron's house, trust in the LORD--he's their help and he's their shield! 11 Who the LORD fear, trust the LORD--he's their help and he's their shield! 12 As the LORD has thought of us, mindful still, he'll bless us now,     he will bless all Isr'el's house; he will bless all Aaron's house; 13 he'll bless all who fear the LORD whether they be small or great. 14  May the LORD so add to you that your numbers will abound.     And as generations pass may your children still increase. 15 Bless-ed be you of the LORD, he who made the heav'n and earth. 16  Heav'ns are heavens of the LORD, earth he's giv'n to sons of men. 17 Dead ones will not praise the LORD, nor those bound for silent graves.  18 But we'll bless the LORD henceforth, evermore, O praise the LORD!

1 Praise to the LORD! The man is blessed indeed
   Who makes the LORD's commands his great delight.
2 His children will be mighty in the earth;
   descendants of the upright will be blessed.

3 Abundant riches are within his house;
   his righteousness endures forevermore.
4 The darkness of the just will turn to light,
    for all his ways are gracious, kind and fair.

5 That man is good who gives and freely lends,
   and who with justice governs his affairs.
6 The righteous man will never be removed,
   And ever will his mem-o-ry endure.

7 At evil tidings he is not afraid;
   His heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
8 His heart is steady; he will never fear;
   He comes at last to look upon his foes.

9   With open hand he offers to the poor;
     His good endures; his head is lifted high.
10 The wicked sees and grinds his teeth in rage,

6 He has the power of his works to his own people shown

7 All that he does is true and right; his precepts all are sure;

3 He gathered them out of the lands, from north, south, east and west;

5 Their strength and life had nearly gone as thirst and hunger pressed;
6 in their distress they cried to GOD: he saved them from their plight.  [1st Refrain]


7 He made the way before them straight, and he became their guide,

Psalm 106

1 O sing Hallelujah! Praise GOD for his goodness;
his covenant love ever endless shall be.
2 What tongue can declare all God's deeds and his praises?
3 How happy are those who do justice and right.
4 When you bless your people, LORD do not forget me,
but come to my aid when you save them in grace.
5 So then I can witness your chosen ones' blessing,
share your nations joy, and with your people praise.

6 We've sinned like our fathers, done wrong, we are guilty;
7 our fathers in Egypt did not heed your signs.
They did not remember your covenant kindness,
but they by the Red Sea rebelled against God.
8 And yet, for his name's sake, he saved them, showed greatness;
9 the Red Sea rebuked so that it dried away.
10 He led through the deep as one walks though a desert,
and from their foes' might he them saved and redeemed.

11 Their foes were all drowned and there were no survivors;
12 so his word they trusted, and his praises sang.
13 But they soon forgot it, did not wait for counsel;
14 they craved in the desert, put God to the test.
15 He heeded their pleading and gave what they wanted,
but then he sent on them a wasting disease.
16 yet then, where they camped, they grew jealous of Moses,
and also of Aaron, the LORD's holy priest.

17 The earth split wide open and swallowed up Dathan,
And over Abiram and his group it closed;
18 then fire blazed on those who had followed their counsel,
and these wicked people were burned in the flames.
19 At Horeb a calf they from gold made and worshiped;
20 their glory exchange for a cast-medal ox!
21 their Savior forgetting, his great deeds in Egypt,
22 his wonders, his exploits beside the Red Sea.

23 He said he'd destroy them, but his chosen Moses
     stepped into the breach and deflected his wrath.
24 But then they refused the good land he had promised,
     and they had no faith in the word he had said.
25 Complaining, they would not to GOD give obedience,
26 so he swore he'd make them in wilderness fall.
27 He'd scatter their children among all the nations,
dispersing them over the face of the earth.

28 The Baal of Pe-or was the one whom they followed;
29 they ate sacrifices to gods that are dead.
30 Provoking God's anger, a plague he sent on them,
     till Phin-e-as rose up; the plague then was stayed.
31 This action so righteous is ever remembered.
32 Yet they angered God at the Meribah springs.
33 And Moses knew trouble: he spoke to them rashly;
yet they had resisted the Spirit of God.

34 The nations they did not destroy as God ordered,
35 but with them they mingled and followed their ways.
36 They bowed to their idols, this was their undoing:
37 to demons their children as sacrifice gave.
38 They shed blood of innocent sons and of daughters,
     when they sacrificed to the Canaanite lies.
39 The land and the people were unclean through evil;
40 the LORD showed his wrath and his people he loathed.

41/42 He gave them to kings of the heathen who crushed them;
43 yet he'd often free them though rebels they stayed.
44/45 For he had regard to their cry and his cov'nant;
46 he showed them his grace, made their captors be kind.
47 So save us, LORD God, bring us back from the heathen;
we'll boast in your praise and your holy name thank.
48 To God, God of Isr'el, sing praises for ever.
God's people say, "Yes and Amen." Praise the LORD!

21.	42 His holy promise He recalled, How Abrah'm served Him long. 43 He led His people forth with joy, His chosen ones with song.

1 LORD, listen to my prayer for help;

   turn to me quickly as I call:

3 my life's consumed, goes up in smoke.

4 I'm seared like grass and shriveled up:

   I'm in no mind to eat my food.

5 My groaning makes me skin and bones.

6 I'm like an owl in lonely wastes.

   I'm like an owl among the ruins;

7 sleepless, a lone bird on a roof.

8 All day my foes insult my name;

   they rail, they use it as a curse.

9  And ash is what I eat for food,

     my tears are mingled with my drink,

10 because in anger and in wrath

     you've picked me up and cast me down.

11 An ev'ning shadow are my days;

     I'm shriveled up just like the grass.

12 But you LORD, ever are enthroned;

     from age to age your name remains.

13 You will arise, give Zi-on aid,

     when time to favor her is right.

14 Your servants think her stones of worth,

     even her dust to them is dear.

15 Then nation's will revere God's name,

     all kings on earth your glory see,

16 when Zi-on is by GOD restored,

     and thus his glory shall appear.

17 Then he the needy's cry will hear;

     he'll not treat with contempt their prayer.

18 And this deliverance he gives

     will to the coming age be known.

    A people that he will create

    will to the God of grace give praise,

19 when GOD looks down from heav'n to earth,

20 hears pris'ners' groans and sets them free.

21 So men will praise God's name in Zion,

     and in Jerusalem give praise,

22 when peoples meet together there,

     when kingdoms meet to praise the LORD.

23 My strength you've weakened in mid course;

     my days of life you have cut short.

24 ”My God, don't take me in mid course;

     your years throughout all ages last.”

25 You earth's foundations laid of old,

     the heavens are your handiwork;

26 they perish will but you abide

    while they wear out like garments do.

27 Like clothes you change them, they will change;

     but you're the same, your years endure!

28 Your servants' sons will thus live on,

          and isles rejoice each one.
2    Dark clouds him compass; and in right
          with judgment dwells his throne.
3    Fire goes before him, and his foes
          it burns up round about:
4    his lightnings lighten did the world;
          earth saw, and shook throughout.

5    Hills at the presence of the Lord,
          like wax, did melt away;
     ev'n at the presence of the Lord
          of all the earth, I say.
6    The heav'ns declare his righteousness,
          all men his glory see.
7    All who serve graven images,
          confounded let them be.

     Who do of idols boast themselves,
          let shame upon them fall:
     ye that are call-ed gods, see that
          ye do him worship all.
8    Sion did hear, and joyful was,
          glad Judah's daughters were;
     they much rejoic'd, O Lord, because
          thy judgments did appear.

9    For thou, O Lord, art high above
          all things on earth that are;
     above all other gods thou art
          exalted very far.
10    Hate ill, all ye that love the Lord:
          his saints' souls keepeth he;
     and from the hands of wicked men
          he sets them safe and free.

11   For all those that be righteous
          sown is a joyful light,
     and gladness sown is for all those
          that are in heart upright.
12   Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice;
          express your thankfulness,
     when ye into your memory
          do call his holiness.

"This psalm is of the same strain with the preceding; and contains, 

(1.) Solemn calls to the Gentile nations to rejoice at the equity and extent of Jesus' new-testament kingdom, and at the destruction of hardened Jews and heathen idolaters, occasioned by the establishment thereof, ver. 1-7. 

(2.) Representations of the pure and holy joy of the saints, on account of Jesus' highness, and the glory of God manifested therein, and of the care taken for their safety and comfort, ver. 8-12.


Join the choir, O my soul.
Sing praises to thy King; sing praises with understanding."--John Brown of Haddington

Psalm 96

1.	1 O sing a new song to the LORD; All earth sing to the LORD. 2 Sing to the LORD, and bless His name; "He saves!" each day proclaim. 3 His glory to all nations show; His deeds let peoples know.
2.	4 The LORD is great. How great His praise! Above all gods He's feared. 5 For heathen gods are idols vain; The LORD the heavens made. 6 Before Him honor, majesty, And strength and splendor be!
3.	7 O families of earth, ascribe All glory to the LORD! All strength ascribe unto the LORD; 8 The glory of His name Give to the LORD. To His courts come And bring an offering. 4. 9 In beautiful and holy robes Bring worship to the LORD. All earth, before Him stand in awe; 10 Proclaim, "The LORD is King!" Controlled by Him, the world stands firm; His judgments justice bring. 5. 11 Let heav'ns be glad and earth rejoice. In vast expanse untold Let seas speak out with endless roar. 12 Let fields and all they hold Their glory give; let trees and woods With rustling boughs give praise. 6. 13 Let all prepare to greet the LORD, Because He coming is. He surely comes to judge the earth. And righteousness is His. He'll nations judge with faithfulness, The world with justice bless. Tune: Coronation

Psalm 95

Ps.95

1 O come, and let us to the LORD in songs our voices raise,
   with joyful noise before the Rock of our salvation praise!

2 Let us before his presence come with praise and thankful voice;
   let us sing psalms to him with grace, and make a joyful noise!

3 For God's a great God and great king, above all gods he is.
4 Depths of the earth are in his hand, the strength of hills is his!

5 To him the spacious sea belongs, for he the same did make;
   the dry land also from his hands its form at first did take.

6 O come and let us worship him; let us with one accord
   in presence of our Maker kneel, and bow before the LORD.

7 For he alone is our strong God; we are his chosen sheep,
   the people in his pasture fed, whom his own hand will keep.

   Today take heed to what he says:
8 "O harden not your hearts
   as those at Meribah, and at Mas-sah, in desert parts.

9  Your fathers tried and tempted me, though they my work perceived.
10 And with that generation I for forty years was grieved.

    I said, 'They have a wand'ring heart, and they my ways detest.'
11 In wrath I swore they should not come into my promised rest."
