A Psalme wherein is set foorth the loue of God towardes vs, wherein he accepteth vs to come vnto him, for whatsoeuer we neede: fit at all times to be sung.

O What a ioyfull thing it is to sing vnto his praise: Who louingly imbraceth his, and guides them in his waies?
He calleth such as are opprest, and helpes them by his might, The poore oppressed gain thē rest, the wronged haue their right.
O come therefore, and let vs fall and humble vs on knee, In heartie zeale, and then he shall of bond-men make vs free.
His mercies great and manifold, forthwith he will extend: His fauours far surpasse the gold, whose glorie shall haue end.
Let vs therefore sing out in zeale, that people all may know:

That he to his doth still reueale his secretes here below.
His heauenly hearts ease they shall find. who do performe his wil. But worldly men continue blind, vainely conceited still.
O teach vs Lord, teach vs in loue, what we should do and say, Giue vs direction from aboue, how we should rightly pray.
That we to thee may honour giue, and to our children show, How thou thy seruants dost relieue that want thine aide below.
