PSALM CXXII. i—4, 6—9.

1 I was glad when they said unto me,

let us go into the house.. of the Lord.

2 Our feet shall stand within thy | gates,..O Je- | rusalem. 3 Jerusalem is builded as a city that is com- pact.. to-gether 4 Whither the tribes go up2 -the tribes of the Lord,

unto the testimony of Israel,

to give thanks unto the name.. of the | Lord.

6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem :they shall prosper.. that | love thee.

7 Peace be within thy walls,

and prosperity with- | in.. thy | palaces.

58 For my brethren and companions' sakes,

I will now say, - Peace.. be with- in thee. 9 Because of the house of the Lord our God, — I will seek.. thy | good.

ISAIAH LVI. 4-7.

THUS saith the Lord

unto them that | keep..my | Sabbaths, And choose the things that please me, and take hold.. of my | covenant.

Even unto them will I give, in mine house,
and within my walls,-a place and a name
better than of sons.. and of | daughters.
I will give them an everlasting name,
that shall not.. be cut off.

Also the sons of the stranger,

that join themselves to the Lord, to serve him,and to love the | name.. of the | Lord,

Even them will I bring to my holy mountain,and make them joyful in my | house.. of | prayer. 53*

PSALM CXIX. 97-104.

97 O, How I love thy law!.

it is my meditation through | all.. the | day.

98 Thou, through thy commandments,

hast made me wiser than mine enemies;

for they.. are | ev..er | with me.

99 I have more understanding than all my teachers; for thy testimonies are my | med..i- | tation.

100 I understand more than the ancients,

S101

be- cause..I | keep.. thy | precepts.

101 I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep..thy | word.

102 I have not departed from thy judgments;

for thou,..O Lord,.. hast | taught me.

103 How sweet are thy words unto my taste! Yea, sweeter than | honey.. to my mouth. 104 Through thy precepts I get understanding;— therefore I hate..every | false = way.

HYMN. 8, 8, 8, & 6.

1 Mr God, my Father, while I stray
Far from my home, on | life's.. rough | way,
O, teach me from my heart to say,

"Thy | will,..my | God,..be | done."
2 Though dark my path, and sad my lot,
Let me be still, and mur.. mur not,
And breathe the prayer divinely taught,
"Thy | will,..my | God,.. be done."
3 What though in lonely grief I sigh
For friends beloved no long..er | nigh;
Submissive still would reply,

"Thy | will,..my | God,.. be | done."
4 If thou shouldst call me to resign
What most I prize,
I only yield thee what is thine;
"Thy will, .my | God,..be | done."

O LORD, the great and | dread.. ful | God,
Keeping covenant and mercy to them that love him,
and to them.. that | keep..his com- | mandments.

We have sinned, and have committed iniquity,
and have done wickedly, and | have ..re- | belled,
Even by departing from

thy precepts..and | from.. thy | judgments.

O Lord, righteousness be- | longeth.. unto thee; But unto us confusion of face; as at this day, because we have | sinned.. a- | gainst = | thee.

Now, therefore, O our God, hear the prayer of thy servants, and their | sup..pli- cations;

And cause thy face to shine upon thy

sanctuary that is desolate, | for.. the | Lord's | sake.

=

For we do not present our supplications
before thee for | our righteousness,
But for thy.. great | mer-
| cies

1 THE Lord is my Shepherd; shall..not | want.

He leadeth me beside the | still = | waters.
3 He restoreth my soul;- - he leadeth me
in the paths of righteousness

for his name's sake.

though I walk through the valley

of the shadow of death,

I will fear no evil: -

for thou art with me,

thy rod and thy | staff.. they | comfort me.

5 Thou preparest a table before me

in the presence of mine enemies :

thou anointest my head with oil;

my cup.. runneth | over.

PSALM CIII. 8-13.

8 THE Lord is merciful and gracious,

slow to anger,

[ocr errors]

and plenteous..in | mercy.

9 He will not always chide,

neither will he keep his | anger.. for- | ever.

10 He hath not dealt with us after our sins;

nor rewarded us according to our.. in-iquities:

11 For as the heaven is high above the earth,

so great is his mercy toward | them.. that | fear him.

12 As far as the east is from the west,

so far hath he removed our trans- | gres..sions | from us.

13 Like as a father pitieth his children,

so the Lord pitieth | them.. that fear him.

PSALM LXV. 4, 5, 8-11, 13.

4 BLESSED is the man whom thou choosest,
and causest to approach unto thee,
that he may dwell.. in thy | courts:

[ocr errors]

We shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house,— even of thy ho..ly | temple.

5 By terrible things in righteousness

wilt thou answer us,

O God of..
..our salvation,

Who art the confidence of all the earth,

and of them that are afar | off.. upon the sea.

8 They that dwell in the uttermost parts are a- fraid.. at thy | tokens ;

Thou makest the outgoings of the morning
and evening.. to re-joice.

9 Thou visitest the earth and waterest it;

thou greatly enrichest it with the river of God, -
which is full.. of water.

Thou preparest them corn

when thou hast so pro- | vi..ded | for it.

10 Thou waterest the ridges thereof abundantly;
thou settest the | furrows.. there- | of;
Thou makest it soft with showers;
thou blessest the | springing.. there- | of.

11 Thou crownest the year with thy goodness;
and thy paths..drop | fatness.

13 The pastures are clothed with flocks, the valleys also with corn;

they shout for joy..and | sing.

there is no un- | righteousness..in | him.
