PSALME 96.

A hymne of adoration, and magnifying the glories of God.

O Sing unto the Lord a new song: sing unto the Lord all the whole earth.

1 Sing unto the Lord, and praise his name: be telling of his salvation from day to day.

3 Declare his honour unto the heathen: and his wonders unto all people.

4 For the Lord is great, and cannot worthi∣ly be praised: he is more to be feared then all Gods.

5 As for all the gods of the heathen, they be but idols: but it is the Lord that made the hea∣vens.

6 Glory and worship are before him: power and honour are in his sanctuary.

7 Ascribe unto the Lord (O ye kindreds of the people:) ascribe unto the Lord worship and power.

8 Ascribe unto the Lord the honour due unto his name: bring presents, and come into his courts.

9 O worship the Lord in the beauty of holi∣nesse: let the whole earth stand in aw of him.

10 C••ll it out among the heathen, that the

Lord is King: and that it is he which hath made the round world so fast that it cannot be moved, and how that he shall iudge the people righteous∣ly.

11 Let the heavens reioyce, and let the earth he glad: let the sea make a noise, and all that there∣in is.

12 Let the field be ioyfull, and all that is in it: then shall all the trees of the wood reioyce be∣fore the Lord.

13 For he cometh, for he cometh to iudge the earth: and with righteousnesse to iudge the world, and the people with his truth.

The Prayer.

O Lord God in whose sanctuary is power and honour, before whose presence is glory and and worship, fill our lips and soules with great devotion and reverence towards thee our God: Make us to love thy goodnesse, to adore thy omni∣potency, to reverence thy justice, to feare thy Majesty, to admire and tremble at thy omnisci∣ence and omnipresence, and to contemplate with the greatest zeale and affections all those glories which thou communicatest to the sonnes of men, in the revelations of thy gospell, of thy creatures, and of thy miracles, that we may tell of thy great∣nesse, and declare thy salvation from day to day;

and when thou commest with righteousnesse to judge the earth, and all people with thy truth, we may rejoyce in thee everlastingly, and sing an E∣ternall Allelujah to thee in thy sanctuary: Grant this for Iesus Christ his sake our Lord and only Sa∣viour. Amen.
