PSALM V. 1-8, 11.

1 GIVE ear unto my words, O Lord,· consider my med.. 1- | tation.

2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry,my King, and

God: my

for unto thee.. will I pray.

3 My voice thou shalt hear in the morning, O Lord;-in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will..look | up. 4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness; - · neither shall | evil..dwell | with thee.

5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight;-
thou hatest all | workers.. of in- | iquity.
6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing:
the Lord will abhor the de- [ceit.. ful man.

7 But as for me, I will come into thy house;
and in thy fear will I worship
toward thy ho..ly | temple.

8 Lead me, O Lord, in thy righteousness,
because of mine enemies;

make thy way straight be- [ fore..my | face.

11 But let all those that put their
trust in thee.. re-joice;

Let them also that love thy name
be joyful..in | thee

Without his high.. be- | hest,
Ye shall not, in the mountain pine,
Dis- turb.. the | spar.. row's nest.
4 His voice sublime is heard afar;
In distant peals..it dies;
He binds the whirlwind to his car,
And sweeps.. the | howl.. ing | skies.
in reverence bend; -
Ye monarchs, I wait.. his | nod,
And bid the choral song ascend
To cel..e- | brate.. our | God.

5 Ye nations, bend;

PSALM CL.

1 PRAISE ye the Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary ; praise him in the firmament | of.. his | power.

2 Praise him for his mighty acts;

praise him according to his | excel.. lent | great=|ness.

3 Praise him with the sound of the trumpet; praise him with | psaltery..and | harp;

4 Praise him with timbrel and dance;

praise him with | stringed.. instru- Íments..and | organs.

5 Praise him upon the loud cymbals; ·

praise him upon the high.. sounding | cymbals. 6 Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord. Halle-lu..jah! I praise..ye the Lord,

THE Lord gave the word;

The Lord gave the word;

great was the company.. of those that I published it.

Thou hast ascended on high;

thou hast received | gifts.. for | men.

Thou hast received gifts for men;

that the Lord.. might | dwell.. a- | mong them.

[2 Chron. vi. 41.]

Now therefore arise, O.. Lord | God. Now therefore arise into thy resting-place, | thou..and the | ark.. of thy | strength:

Let thy priests, O Lord God,

be clothed.. with sal-vation;

And let thy | saints..
..re-joice..in | goodness.

[Acts iv. 29.]

And now, Lord, grant unto thy servants

that with all boldness they may | speak.. thy | word. Amen, | A.... men, | A- = | men.

LORD, make me to know mine end,

and the measure of my days, I what..it is; That I may know how | frail..I am.

Behold, thou hast made my days

as a handbreadth, and mine
age as nothing.. be- | fore thee:
every man at his best state

Verily,

is altogether | van.... . i- | ty.

Surely every man walketh in a vain show; they are dis- quieted..in | vain :

He heapeth up riches,

and knoweth not | who..shall | gather them.

[Ps. xlix. 17, 19.]

For when he dieth he shall

carry nothing away;

his glory shall not de- | scend

| after him:

He shall go to the gene- ration.. of his | fathers.

1 ALAS! how poor and little worth Are all those glittering toys of earth That lure.. us here!

Dreams of a sleep that death must break:
Alas! before it bids us wake, ·

They dis.. ap- | I pear.

2 Where is the strength that spurned decay, The step that rolled so light and gay,

The heart's.. blithe | tone?

The strength is gone, the step is slow, -
And joy grows weariness and woe,
When age..comes | on.

[See Hymn 752.)
