How terrible his praise! Justice and truth, and judgment join, In all his works of grace. PSALM 99. Second Part. S. M. A holy God worshipped with reverence.

First Part. L. M. MER ERCY and judgment are my song": And since they both to thee belong, My gracious God, my righteous King, To thee my songs and vows I'll bring. If I am rais'd to bear the sword, I'll take my counsels from thy word: Thy justice and thy heav'nly grace Shall be the pattern of my ways. 3 Let wisdom all my actions guide, And let my God with me reside: No wicked thing shall dwell with me, Which may provoke thy jealousy. 4 I'll search the land, and raise the just To posts of honour, wealth and trust: The men that work thy holy will, Shall be my friends and fav'rites still. -5 In vain shail sinners hope to rise By flatt'ring or malicious lies; And while the innocent I guard, The bold offender shan't be spar'd. 6 The impious crew, that factious band, Shall hide their heads, or quit the land; And all that break the public rest, Where I have pow'r, shall be supprest. PSALM 101. Second Part. C. M. A psalm for a master of a family. F justice and of grace I sing, And pay my God my vows: Thy grace and justice, heav'nly king, Teach me to rule my house. 2 Now to my tent, O God, repair, 3 The man, that doth his neighbour wrong, By falsehood or by force; The scornful eye, the sland'rous tongue, 4 I'll seek the faithful and the just, These are the friends that I shall trust, 5 The wretch that deals in sly deceit, The liar's tongue I'll ever hate, 1 H PSALM 102. First Part. C. M. EAR me, O God, nor hide thy face, Hast thou not built a throne of To hear when sinners cry? grace 2 My days are wasted like the smoke My strength is dried, my heart is broke, 3 My spirits flag like with'ring grass In secret groans my minutes pass, 4 As on some lonely building's top 5 My soul is like a wilderness, Where beasts of midnight howl; 6 Dark dismal thoughts and boding fears Dwell in my troubled breast; |
