TALLIS.

1 O LORD, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in | all the | earth! Who hast set thy | glory a- | bove the | heavens.

2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength be- | cause of • thine | enemies,

That thou mightest still the enemy and the a- | venger.

3 When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers,

The moon and the stars | which thou hast or- | dained;

4 What is man, that thou art | mindful • of | him? And the son of man | that thou | visi - test | him?

5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, And hast crowned him with | glory | and

| honor.

6 Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy | hands; Thou hast put | all things | under his | feet:

And whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.

He leadeth me in the path of righteousness | for his | name's sake.

4 Yea, 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.

3. PSALM LXVII.

1 God be merciful unto | us, and bless us;
And cause his face to shine up- | on us.
2 That thy way may be | known up on earth,
Thy saving health a- mong all nations.

3 Let the people praise | thee, O God;

Let | all the people | praise thee.

4 Oh, let the nations be glad and sing for | joy:

For thou shalt judge the people righteously, and govern the | nations | upon | earth.

4. PSALM XIX.

1 THE heavens declare the glory of | God;

And the firmament | showeth his handi- | work.

2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto | night showeth | knowledge.

There is no speech nor language, where their | voice is not heard.

3 Their line is gone out through all the earth,

And their words to the | end of the world.

4 In them hath he set a tabernacle | for the sun,

[ocr errors]

Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to | rum a | race.

5 His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends And there is nothing | hid from the | heat there- | of.

6 The law of the Lord is perfect, con- | verting the soul:
The testimony of the Lord is sure, | making | wise the | simple.

7 The statutes of the Lord are right, re- | joicing the heart:
The commandment of the Lord is | pure, en- | lightening the | eyes.

The judgments of the Lord are true and | righteous | alto- | gether.

9 More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than [ much fine | gold; Sweeter also than honey | and the | honey-comb.

10 Moreover by them is thy servant | warned:

And in keeping of them | there is | great re- | ward.

11 Who can under- | stand his | errors?

Cleanse thou me from | secret | faults.

12 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have do- | minion | over me: Then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent | from the great trans-gression.

13 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy | sight, O Lord, my | Strength, and | my Re- | deemer.

2 My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of the Lord:

My heart and my flesh crieth | out for the | living | God.

Every one of them in Zion ap- peareth be- | fore- | God.

8 O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer:

Give | ear, O God of Jacob.

9 Behold, O God our | shield,

And look upon the face of thine A- | nointed.

10 For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand.

I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wicked- | ness. 11 For the Lord God is a | sun and | shield:

The Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk up-| rightly.

12 O Lord of hosts,

Blessed is the man that | trusteth in thee.
