Psalm 92

TO give thanks to the Lord it is
a good and comely thing,
And to thy name, O thou most high,
thine own due praise to sing.
Thy loving kindnesse forth to shew
in the first morning light,
And to declare thy faithfulnesse
and thy truth every night;

On a ten stringed instrument,
and on the psaltery,
With solemn sound upon the harp,
and grave sweet melody.
For with thy works, Lord, thou hast made
my soul right glad to be,
And in the works will I triumph
which have been wrought by thee.

O Lord, how glorious and how great
are the works of thine hand?
So deep thy thoughts and counsels are,
none can them understand.
The brutish man is far unfit
thy secrets to receive,
The foolish man cannot in this
thy wisdome now perceive.

That when like grasse the wicked spring,
and sinners flourish all,
It is that they for ever may
into destruction fall.
But thou, O Lord, who dost them judge,
for ever dost remain,
And thou most high, above thy foes
for evermore shalt reign.

The Second Part.

For lo, thine enemies, O Lord,
thine enemies perish shall,
The workers of iniquity
they shall be scattered all,
But thou shalt like the Unicorns
my horn lift up on high,
And in my prosperous state with oil,
my face anoint shall I.

Mine eye shall see my full desire
upon mine enemies,
Mine ear shall hear it of all those
that up against me rise.
But like a palm-tree fresh and green,
the righteous flourish shall,
Increasing, as in Lebanon
do grow the Cedars tall.

Those that within the house of God
once firmly rooted are,
They always shall within the house
of our God flourish fair.
When they wax old they shall not fail,
but still forth fruit shall bring,
And they shall not decay, but shall
be sat and flourishing.

To shew that righteous is the Lord,
who doth the righteous blesse,
He is my rock, and strength, in him
is no unrighteousnesse.
