Psalm 51: After thy loving-kindness, Lord

Hymnal: SPAP1800 #P55 (1800) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: After thy loving-kindness, Lord Lyrics: 1After thy loving-kindness, Lord, have mercy upon me: For thy compassions great, blot out all mine iniquity. 2Me cleanse from sin, and throughly wash from mine iniquity: 3For my transgressions I confess; my sin I ever see. 4’Gainst thee, thee only, have I sinn’d, in thy sight done this ill; That when thou speak’st thou may’st be just, and clear in judging still. 5Behold, I in iniquity was form’d the womb within; My mother also me conceiv’d in guiltiness and sin. 6Behold, thou in the inward parts with truth delighted art; And wisdom thou shalt make me know within the hidden part. 7Do thou with hyssop sprinkle me, I shall be cleansed so; Yea, wash thou me, and then I shall be whiter than the snow. 8Of gladness and of joyfulness make me to hear the voice; That so these very bones which thou hast broken may rejoice. 9All mine iniquities blot out, thy face hide from my sin. 10Create a clean heart, Lord, renew a right sp’rit me within. 11Cast me not from thy sight, nor take thy Holy Sp’rit away. 12Restore me thy salvation’s joy; with thy free Sp’rit me stay. 13Then will I teach thy ways unto those that transgressors be; And those that sinners are shall then be turned unto thee. 14O God, of my salvation God, me from blood-guiltiness Set free; then shall my tongue aloud sing of thy righteousness. 15My closed lips, O Lord, by thee let them be opened; Then shall thy praises by my mouth abroad be published. 16For thou desir’st not sacrifice, else would I give it thee; Nor wilt thou with burnt-offering at all delighted be. 17A broken spirit is to God a pleasing sacrifice: A broken and a contrite heart, Lord, thou wilt not despise. 18Shew kindness, and do good, O Lord, to Sion, thine own hill: The walls of thy Jerusalem build up of thy good will. 19Then righteous off ‘rings shall thee please, and off ‘rings burnt, which they With whole burnt-off ‘rings, and with calves, shall on thine altar lay.

Psalm 66: All lands to God in joyful sounds

Hymnal: SPAP1800 #P70 (1800) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: All lands to God in joyful sounds Lyrics: 1All lands to God in joyful sounds, aloft your voices raise. 2Sing forth the honour of his name, and glorious make his praise. 3Say unto God, How terrible in all thy works art thou! Through thy great pow’r thy foes to thee shall be constrain’d to bow. 4All on the earth shall worship thee, they shall thy praise proclaim In songs: they shall sing cheerfully unto thy holy name. 5Come, and the works that God hath wrought with admiration see: In’s working to the sons of men most terrible is he. 6Into dry land the sea he turn’d, and they a passage had; Ev’n marching through the flood on foot, there we in him were glad. 7He ruleth ever by his pow’r; his eyes the nations see: O let not the rebellious ones lift up themselves on high. 8Ye people, bless our God; aloud the voice speak of his praise: 9Our soul in life who safe preserves, our foot from sliding stays. 10For thou didst prove and try us, Lord, as men do silver try; 11Brought’st us into the net, and mad’st bands on our loins to lie. 12Thou hast caus’d men ride o’er our heads; and though that we did pass Through fire and water, yet thou brought’st us to a wealthy place. 13I’ll bring burnt off ‘rings to thy house; to thee my vows I’ll pay, 14Which my lips utter’d, my mouth spake, when trouble on me lay. 15Burnt-sacrifices of fat rams with incense I will bring; Of bullocks and of goats I will present an offering. 16All that fear God, come, hear, I’ll tell what he did for my soul. 17I with my mouth unto him cry’d, my tongue did him extol. 18If in my heart I sin regard, the Lord me will not hear: 19But surely God me heard, and to my prayer’s voice gave ear. 20O let the Lord, our gracious God, for ever blessed be, Who turned not my pray’r from him, nor yet his grace from me.

For why? the Lord our God is good, His mercy is for ever sure; His truth at all times firmly stood, And shall from age to age endure. Scripture: Psalm 100 Languages: English

Lament. 3:37-40: Amidst the mighty, where is he

Hymnal: SPAP1800 #R29 (1800) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Amidst the mighty, where is he Lyrics: Amidst the mighty, where is he who saith, and it is done? Each varying scene of changeful life is from the Lord alone. He gives in gladsome bow’rs to dwell, or clothes in sorrow’s shroud; His hand hath formed the light, his hand hath formed the dark’ning cloud. Why should a living man complain beneath the chast’ning rod? Our sins afflict us; and the cross must bring us back to God. O sons of men! with anxious care your hearts and ways explore; Return from paths of vice to God: return, and sin no more! Scripture: Lamentations 3:37-40 Languages: English

Romans 6:1-7: And shall we then go on to sin

Hymnal: SPAP1800 #R47 (1800) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: And shall we then go on to sin Lyrics: And shall we then go on to sin, that grace may more abound? Great God, forbid that such a thought should in our breast be found! When to the sacred font we came, did not the rite proclaim, That, washed from sin, and all its stains, new creatures we became? With Christ the Lord we died to sin; with him to life we rise, To life, which now begun on earth, is perfect in the skies. Too long enthralled to Satan’s sway, we now are slaves no more; For Christ hath vanquished death and sin, our freedom to restore. Scripture: Romans 6:1-7 Languages: English

Eccles. 9:4,5,6,10: As long as life its term extends

Hymnal: SPAP1800 #R15 (1800) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: As long as life its term extends Lyrics: As long as life its term extends, Hope’s blest dominion never ends; For while the lamp holds on to burn, The greatest sinner may return. Life is the season God both giv’n To fly from hell, and rise to heav’n; That day of grace fleets fast away, And none its rapid course can stay. The living know that they must die; But all the dead forgotten lie: Their mem’ry and their name is gone, Alike unknowing and unknown. Their hatred and their love is lost, Their envy buried in the dust; They have no share in all that’s done Beneath the circuit of the sun. Then what thy thoughts design to do, Still let thy bands with might pursue; Since no device nor work is found, Nor wisdom underneath the ground. In the cold grave, to which we haste, There are no acts of pardon past: But fixed the doom of all remains, And everlasting silence reigns. Scripture: Ecclesiastes 9:4-6 Languages: English

John 3:14-19: As when the Hebrew prophet raised

Hymnal: SPAP1800 #R41 (1800) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: As when the Hebrew prophet raised Lyrics: As when the Hebrew prophet raised the brazen serpent high, The wounded looked, and straight were cured, the people ceased to die: So from the Saviour on the cross a healing virtue flows; Who looks to him with lively faith is saved from endless woes. For God gave up his Son to death, so gen’rous was his love, That all the faithful might enjoy eternal life above. Not to condemn the sons of men the Son of God appeared; No weapons in his hand are seen, nor voice of terror heard: He came to raise our fallen state, and our lost hopes restore: Faith leads us to the mercy-seat, and bids us fear no more. But vengeance just for ever lies on all the rebel race, Who God’s eternal Son despise and scorn his offered grace. Scripture: John 3:14-19 Languages: English

Isaiah 58:5-9: Attend, and mark the solemn fast

Hymnal: SPAP1800 #R28 (1800) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Attend, and mark the solemn fast Lyrics: Attend, and mark the solemn fast which to the Lord is dear; Disdain the false unhallowed mask which vain dissemblers wear. Do I delight In sorrow’s dress? saith he who reigns above; The hanging head and rueful look, will they attract my love? Let such as feel oppression’s load thy tender pity share: And let the helpless, homeless poor, be thy peculiar care. Go, bid the hungry orphan be with thy abundance blest; Invite the wand’rer to thy gate, and spread the couch of rest. 135 Let him who pines with piercing cold by thee be warmed and clad; Be thine the blissful task to make the downcast mourner glad. Then, bright as morning, shall come forth, in peace and joy, thy days; And glory from the Lord above shall shine on all thy ways. Scripture: Isaiah 58:5-9 Languages: English

Psalm 78: Attend, my people, to my law

Hymnal: SPAP1800 #P84 (1800) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Attend, my people, to my law Lyrics: 1Attend, my people, to my law; thereto give thou an ear; The words that from my mouth proceed attentively do hear. 2My mouth shall speak a parable, and sayings dark of old; 3The same which we have heard and known, and us our fathers told. 4We also will them not conceal from their posterity; Them to the generation to come declare will we: The praises of the Lord our God, and his almighty strength, The wondrous works that he hath done, we will shew forth at length. 5His testimony and his law in Isr’el he did place, And charg’d our fathers it to show to their succeeding race; 6That so the race which was to come might well them learn and know; And sons unborn, who should arise, might to their sons them show: 7That they might set their hope in God, and suffer not to fall His mighty works out of their mind, but keep his precepts all: 8And might not, like their fathers, be a stiff rebellious race; A race not right in heart; with God whose sp’rit not stedfast was. 9The sons of Ephraim, who nor bows nor other arms did lack, When as the day of battle was, they faintly turned back. 10They brake God’s cov’nant, and refus’d in his commands to go; 11His works and wonders they forgot, which he to them did show. 12Things marvellous he brought to pass; their fathers them beheld Within the land of Egypt done, yea, ev’n in Zoan’s field. 13By him divided was the sea, he caus’d them through to pass; And made the waters so to stand, as like an heap it was. 14With cloud by day, with light of fire all night, he did them guide. 15In desert rocks he clave, and drink, as from great depths, supply’d. 16He from the rock brought streams, like floods made waters to run down. 17Yet sinning more, in desert they provok’d the Highest One. 18For in their heart they tempted God, and, speaking with mistrust, They greedily did meat require to satisfy their lust. 19Against the Lord himself they spake, and, murmuring, said thus, A table in the wilderness can God prepare for us? 20Behold, he smote the rock, and thence came streams and waters great; But can he give his people bread? and send them flesh to eat? 21The Lord did hear, and waxed wroth; so kindled was a flame ’Gainst Jacob, and ‘gainst Israel up indignation came. 22For they believ’d not God, nor trust in his salvation had; 23Though clouds above he did command, and heav’n’s doors open made, 24And manna rain’d on them, and gave them corn of heav’n to eat. 25Man angels’ food did eat; to them he to the full sent meat. 26And in the heaven he did cause an eastern wind to blow; And by his power he let out the southern wind to go. 27Then flesh as thick as dust he made to rain down them among; And feather’d fowls, like as the sand which li’th the shore along. 28At his command amidst their camp these show’rs of flesh down fell, All round about the tabernacles and tents where they did dwell. 29So they did eat abundantly, and had of meat their fill; For he did give to them what was their own desire and will. 30They from their lust had not estrang’d their heart and their desire; But while the meat was in their mouths, which they did so require, 31God’s wrath upon them came, and slew the fattest of them all; So that the choice of Israel, o’erthrown by death, did fall. 32Yet, notwithstanding of all this, they sinned still the more; And though he had great wonders wrought, believ’d him not therefore: 33Wherefore their days in vanity he did consume and waste; And by his wrath their wretched years away in trouble past. 34But when he slew them, then they did to seek him shew desire; Yea, they return’d, and after God right early did enquire. 35And that the Lord had been their Rock, they did remember then; Ev’n that the high almighty God had their Redeemer been. 36Yet with their mouth they flatter’d him, and spake but feignedly; And they unto the God of truth with their false tongues did lie. 37For though their words were good, their heart with him was not sincere; Unstedfast and perfidious they in his cov’nant were. 38But, full of pity, he forgave their sin, them did not slay; Nor stirr’d up all his wrath, but oft his anger turn’d away. 39For that they were but fading flesh to mind he did recall; A wind that passeth soon away, and not returns at all. 40How often did they him provoke within the wilderness! And in the desert did him grieve with their rebelliousness! 41Yea, turning back, they tempted God, and limits set upon Him, who in midst of Isr’el is the only Holy One. 42They did not call to mind his pow’r, nor yet the day when he Deliver’d them out of the hand of their fierce enemy; 43Nor how great signs in Egypt land he openly had wrought; What miracles in Zoan’s field his hand to pass had brought. 44How lakes and rivers ev’ry where he turned into blood; So that nor man nor beast could drink of standing lake or flood. 45He brought among them swarms of flies, which did them sore annoy; And divers kinds of filthy frogs he sent them to destroy. 46He to the caterpillar gave the fruits of all their soil; Their labours he deliver’d up unto the locusts’ spoil. 47Their vines with hail, their sycamores he with the frost did blast: 48Their beasts to hail he gave; their flocks hot thunderbolts did waste. 49Fierce burning wrath he on them cast, and indignation strong, And troubles sore, by sending forth ill angels them among. 50He to his wrath made way; their soul from death he did not save; But over to the pestilence the lives of them he gave. 51In Egypt land the first-born all he smote down ev’ry where; Among the tents of Ham, ev’n these chief of their strength that were. 52But his own people, like to sheep, thence to go forth he made; And he, amidst the wilderness, them, as a flock, did lead. 53And he them safely on did lead, so that they did not fear; Whereas their en’mies by the sea quite overwhelmed were. 54To borders of his sanctuary the Lord his people led, Ev’n to the mount which his right hand for them had purchased. 55The nations of Canaan, by his almighty hand, Before their face he did expel out of their native land; Which for inheritance to them by line he did divide, And made the tribes of Israel within their tents abide. 56Yet God most high they did provoke, and tempted ever still; And to observe his testimonies did not incline their will: 57But, like their fathers, turned back, and dealt unfaithfully: Aside they turned, like a bow that shoots deceitfully. 58For they to anger did provoke him with their places high; And with their graven images mov’d him to jealousy. 59When God heard this, he waxed wroth, and much loath’d Isr’el then: 60So Shiloh’s tent he left, the tent which he had plac’d with men. 61And he his strength delivered into captivity; He left his glory in the hand of his proud enemy. 62His people also he gave o’er unto the sword’s fierce rage: So sore his wrath inflamed was against his heritage. 63The fire consum’d their choice young men; their maids no marriage had; 64And when their priests fell by the sword, their wives no mourning made. 65But then the Lord arose, as one that doth from sleep awake; And like a giant that, by wine refresh’d, a shout doth make: 66Upon his en’mies’ hinder parts he made his stroke to fall; And so upon them he did put a shame perpetual. 67Moreover, he the tabernacle of Joseph did refuse; The mighty tribe of Ephraim he would in no wise chuse: 68But he did chuse Jehudah’s tribe to be the rest above; And of mount Sion he made choice, which he so much did love. 69And he his sanctuary built like to a palace high, Like to the earth which he did found to perpetuity. 70Of David, that his servant was, he also choice did make, And even from the folds of sheep was pleased him to take: 71From waiting on the ewes with young, he brought him forth to feed Israel, his inheritance, his people, Jacob’s seed. 72So after the integrity he of his heart them fed; And by the good skill of his hands them wisely governed.
