PSAL. XXXIV.
God wil I bless all times: his praise
my mouth shal stil expresse.
My soul shal boast in God: the meek
shal hear with joyfulnesse.
Extol the Lord with me, let us
exalt his name together.
I sought the Lord, he heard, and did
me from all fears deliver.
my mouth shal stil expresse.
My soul shal boast in God: the meek
shal hear with joyfulnesse.
Extol the Lord with me, let us
exalt his name together.
I sought the Lord, he heard, and did
me from all fears deliver.
They look'd to him, & lightned were;
not shamed were their faces.
This poor man cry'd, God heard, & sav'd
him from all his distresses.
The angel of the Lord encamps,
and round encompasseth
All those about that do him fear,
and them delivereth.

This poor man cry'd, God heard, & sav'd
him from all his distresses.
The angel of the Lord encamps,
and round encompasseth
All those about that do him fear,
and them delivereth.
O taste and see, that God is good:
who trusts in him is blest.
Fear God his saints: none that him fear
shal be with want opprest
The lions young may hungry be.
and they may lack their food:
But they that truly seek the Lord,
shal not lack any good.
who trusts in him is blest.
Fear God his saints: none that him fear
shal be with want opprest
The lions young may hungry be.
and they may lack their food:
But they that truly seek the Lord,
shal not lack any good.
O children, hither do ye come,
and unto me give ear:
I shal you teach to understand
how ye the Lord should fear.
What man is he that life desires,
to see good would live long?
Thy lips refrain frō speaking guile,
and from ill words thy tongue.
and unto me give ear:
I shal you teach to understand

What man is he that life desires,
to see good would live long?
Thy lips refrain frō speaking guile,
and from ill words thy tongue.
Depart from ill, do good; seek peace
pursue it earnestly.
Gods eyes are on the just; his ears
are open to their cry.
The face of God is set against
those that do wickedly.
That he may quite out from the earth
cut off their memory.

That he may quite out from the earth
cut off their memory.
The righteous cry unto the Lord,
he unto them gives ear;
And they, out of their troubles all,
by him delivered are.
The Lord is ever nigh to them
that be of broken sp'rit:
To them he safety doth afford,
that are in heart contrite.

And they, out of their troubles all,
by him delivered are.
The Lord is ever nigh to them
that be of broken sp'rit:
To them he safety doth afford,
that are in heart contrite.
The troubles that afflict the just,
in number many be:
But yet at length, out of them all,
the Lord doth set them free.
He carefully his bones doth keep,
what ever can befal:
That not so much as one of them
can broken be at all.
