PSALM 31. C. M.
1 TORD, in thy sight, O let my prayer

Like morning incense rise;
My lifted hands accepted be

As evening sacrifice.
2 From hasty language curb my tongue,

And let a constant guard
Still keep the portal of my lips

With wary silence barr'd.

3 Let upright men reprove my faults,

And I shall think them kind;
Like healing oil upon my head
· I their reproof shall find.

PSALM 32. L. M. 1 T ORD what's in man, that thou should'st love

1 Of him such tender care to take ? What in his offspring could thee move

Such great account of him to make ?

2 The life of man doth quickly fade,

His thoughts but empty are and vain, His days are like a flying shade,

Of whose short stay no signs remain.

3 To thee, almighty King of kings,.

In new-made hymns my voice I'll raise; And instruments of many strings

Shall help me to adore and praise.

1 0 PRAISE the Lord, and thou my soul,

For ever bless his name;
His wondrous love, while life shall last,

My constant praise shall claim. 2 On princes, on the sons of men,

Let none for aid rely;
They cannot help, they turn to dust,

And all their counsels die.
3 Then happy he, who Jacob's God

For his protector takes; Who still, with well-placed hope, the Lord

His constant refuge makes.

PSALM 34. H. M. 1 LORD of the worlds above,

U How pleasant and how fair
The dwellings of thy love,
Thy earthly temples are.
To thine abode
My heart aspires,

With warm desires

To see my God.
2 O happy souls that pray

Where God appoints to hear!
O happy men that pay
Their constant service there!
They praise thee still;
And happy they

That love the way
To Sion's hill.

3 They go from strength to strength,

Through this dark vale of tears,
Till each arrives at length
Till each in heaven appears,
O glorious seat,

Where God our King

Shall thither bring
Our willing feet.
