Psal. 30. Exaltabo te, Domine.
Psalmus Cantici: Dedicationis domus David.
1
I will extoll thee, Lord Most-Hie,so high-extoll'd by thee:
That hast not left an enemie
to triumph over mee.
2
Thee, Lord my God, my cry besought,thou heald'st mee instantly:
3
My soule from Hell thou Lord hast brought,reviv'd mee from-to-die.
4
O ye his Saints, the praises sing,that to the Lord belong:
Before his holy presence bring
a thanks-remembring song.
5
For but the twinkling of an eiehis angers moment lasts:
But life on fraile mortalitie
his gracious favour casts.
An evening weeping may out-weare,
and teares with midnight mourne:
But mirth at morning will appeare,
and joy with light returne.
6
In my prosperitie I said,mov'd shall I never be.
7
My mountaine, Lord, so strongly laid,thy favour rais'd to me.
Thy face from me yet didst thou hide,
and I was troubled soone:
8
Then Lord to thee for grace I cri'd,to thee, Lord, made my moane.
9
What profit in my bloud can be,when I descend the pit?
Shall dust to tender thankes to thee,
51
10
Heare, Lord, of thee what I request,and mercy on mee take:
O doe not mee that am distrest,
my helper, Lord, forsake.
11
To joyfull dancing hast thou turn'dmy sorrowes dolefull sound:
My sack-cloth loos'd, wherein I mourn'd,
with gladnesse girt mee round.
12
That so may my uncessant tongue,(my glory) tune thy praise:
Thankes, Lord, to thee my God be sung,
to endlesse length of daies.
