The Psalmes Of David In Meeter | ||
PSAL. CXV.
Not unto us, Lord, not to us,
but do thou glory take
Unto thy Name, ev'n for thy truth,
and for thy mercies sake.
O wherefore should the heathen say,
Where is their God now gone?
But our God in the heavens is,
what pleas'd him he hath done.
but do thou glory take
Unto thy Name, ev'n for thy truth,
and for thy mercies sake.
O wherefore should the heathen say,
Where is their God now gone?
But our God in the heavens is,
what pleas'd him he hath done.
Their idols silver are and gold,
work of mens hands they be:
Mouths have they, but they do not speak!
and eyes, but do not see.
Ears have they, but they do not hear
noses, but savour not:
Hands, feet, but handle not, nor walk,
nor speak they through their throat.
work of mens hands they be:
Mouths have they, but they do not speak!
and eyes, but do not see.
Ears have they, but they do not hear
noses, but savour not:
Hands, feet, but handle not, nor walk,
nor speak they through their throat.
Like them their makers are, and all
on them their trust that build.
O Israel, trust thou in the Lord,
he is their help and shield.
O Aarons house, trust in the Lord,
their help and shield is he.
Ye that fear God, trust in the Lord,
their help and shield he'l be.
on them their trust that build.
O Israel, trust thou in the Lord,
he is their help and shield.
O Aarons house, trust in the Lord,
their help and shield is he.
Ye that fear God, trust in the Lord,
their help and shield he'l be.
The Lord of us hath mindful been,
and he wil bless us stil,
He wil the house of Isra'l blesse,
blesse Aarons house he wil.
Both smal & great that fear the Lord
he wil them surely blesse.
The Lord wil you, you & your seed
ay more and more increase.
and he wil bless us stil,
He wil the house of Isra'l blesse,
blesse Aarons house he wil.
Both smal & great that fear the Lord
he wil them surely blesse.
The Lord wil you, you & your seed
ay more and more increase.
