The .xlvij. Psalme.
Ye
people all, clappe wyth your handes, declare your herte therby:
Syng vnto God wyth merie voyce reioyce most hertily.
Syng vnto God wyth merie voyce reioyce most hertily.
For the Lorde is moste hygh I saye, & eke to be feared:
A ryght greate kynge he is by whome al the earth is ruled.
A ryght greate kynge he is by whome al the earth is ruled.
He subdueth whole contreys of people vs to obeye:
So doeth he ryght greate nations vnder our fete I saye.
So doeth he ryght greate nations vnder our fete I saye.
He hath chosen and pyked out for vs oure heritage:
The worthynes of Iacob whome he loued in yonge age.
The worthynes of Iacob whome he loued in yonge age.
God ascendeth wyth freshe syngynge, and wyth greate melodie:
Wyth the blasse and sowne of trumpettes, the Lorde goeth vpon hye.
Wyth the blasse and sowne of trumpettes, the Lorde goeth vpon hye.
Synge vnto God, synge vnto hym, synge ye vnto our kynge:
Synge to our God and kyng I saye, alwaye wythout ceaseynge.
Synge to our God and kyng I saye, alwaye wythout ceaseynge.
For God is kynge of all the earth, and ruleth in the same:
Synge vnto him, synge conynglye vnto his holy name.
Synge vnto him, synge conynglye vnto his holy name.
God reygneth ouer nations and the Heathen alone:
God sytteth on hys pryncely seate and in hys holy throne.
God sytteth on hys pryncely seate and in hys holy throne.
To the people of Habrams God, great rulars are ioyned:
Because he doeth excell them that haue the earth defended.
