The .xciij. Psalme.
The
Lord is kynge and hath put on magificence princely:
The Lorde I saye hath put on strength, and made himselfe redie.
The Lorde I saye hath put on strength, and made himselfe redie.
Yea the rounde compasse of the earth is made so firme and sure:
That it shall not threathen to fall, but shall stand and endure.
Thy throne (O Lorde) and princely seate, was appoynted before:
From the begymynge, and thy selfe haste bene for euermore.
From the begymynge, and thy selfe haste bene for euermore.
The freshe waters lyfte vp theyr noyse, they lyfte it vp on hye:
Theyr surges & theyr waues they do, lyfte vp towarde the skye.
Theyr surges & theyr waues they do, lyfte vp towarde the skye.
Yea more then the wylde waters and the greate stormes of the sea:
Such is the great powre of the Lorde, that in heauen hath the swea.
Such is the great powre of the Lorde, that in heauen hath the swea.
For that thou (Lord) haste spoken of thyne house fayre and holy:
The same shall remayne firme & true, tyme out of memorie.
The same shall remayne firme & true, tyme out of memorie.
