The Psalms of David set forth in English meeter set forth by Francis Rous...

O Give ye thankes unto the Lord, and call upon his Name: •…•…mong his people shew his works, and spread abroad his fame. Sing unto him, yea joyfully in Psalmes unto him sing; •…•…alk ye of all the wondrous works of our almighty King.

〈◊〉〈◊〉 honour of his holy Name rejoyce with one accord;

And let the hearts of them rejoyce, that truly seek the Lord. [verse 4] Seek ye the Lord, & seek the strength of his eternall might; And of his face continually seek to enjoy the sight.

[verse 5] The wondrous works that he hath done keep still in mindfull heart; Nor let the judgements of his mouth out of your mind depart. [verse 6] Ye that of faithfull Abraham his servant are the seed: Ye his elect, the children that of Jacob do proceed.

[verse 7] Because he, and he only is the mighty Lord our God; And his most rightfull judgements are through all the earth abroad. [verse 8] He kept his Covenant still in mind, the word which by him was To thousand generations commanded downe to passe.

[verse 9] Which Covenant he most firmly made with faithfull Abraham; And unto Isaac by his oath he did renew the same. [verse 10] And unto Jacob for a Law he made it firme and sure: A Covenant to 〈◊〉〈◊〉, which ever should endure.

[verse 11] When thus he said, Behold, to you I C•…•…ns land will give:

The lot of your inheritance, wherein your seed shall live. [verse 12] Although their number at that time did very small appeare; Yea, very small, and in the land they then but strangers were.
