Dauid, O Lord, and all his deep
Afflictions think vpon;
How to thee, Lord, hee sware, and vow'd
To Jacob's mightie one.
In tabernacle of myne howsse
Not lodgeing will I take;
No, not a bed; mine eyes shal rest,
Mine eyelids sleep forsake.

In tabernacle of myne howsse
Not lodgeing will I take;
No, not a bed; mine eyes shal rest,
Mine eyelids sleep forsake.
Till I a place, a duelling place,
For God, the mightie God
Of Jacob fynd. At Ephratah
Wee hard of it abrode.
Wee found it out amidst the fields,
Wheir gloomie woods do grow.
Wnto his tabernacle streight
To Worschip wee will goe.

Wheir gloomie woods do grow.
Wnto his tabernacle streight
To Worschip wee will goe.
Wee at his footstooll will fall doun.
Rise, Lord, vnto thy rest;
Thow and thy arke, in which thy strength
And might is manifest.
To cloath thy preists let righteousnes,
O Lord, the rayment bee.
Let all thy saincts exult and shout,
And still rejoyce in thee.

Lord, wnto Dauid haue respect;
Thy servant think wpon.
O, do not turne away the face
Of thy anointed one.
The Lord in treuth to David swore,
And at his word will byd.
Vpon thy throne to sitt, a seed
I'le from thy loyns provide.

So thine my [word] and law observe,
Which I to them shal teach,
In their succession on thy throne
Shal never be a breach.
For God hath Sion chuis'd, evin lykd
To duell in. Heer for ay
I'le rest. The duelling Sion is,
Where I delight to stay.

Her foode aboundantlie I'le blesse,
And fill her poore with bread.
Her preists I'le with salvation cloath.
The joyes I'le make exceed
Of all her saincts. Thair David's horne
To budde and grow in might
I'le make. For my anoynted one
Prepaird I haue a light.
And fill her poore with bread.
Her preists I'le with salvation cloath.

His foes with foule disgrace I'le cloath;
Shame shall their garment bee.
But floorish shall wpon himself
His croun in honor high.
Shame shall their garment bee.
But floorish shall wpon himself
