Psalm CXI. (Book 111)

London Tune.
〈♫〉〈♫〉Ap-plaud the Lord, whom I will praise 〈♫〉〈♫〉with my whole heart and might: 〈♫〉〈♫〉Both in the se--cret of the just, 〈♫〉〈♫〉and in the church-es sight. [verse 2] Great are the works of our great God, and every one no doubt Delighting in them from their heart, with care do search them out. [verse 3] His work most honourable is, and glorious no less. Unto eternity endures his truth and right'ousness. [verse 4] Surely he made his wondrous works, still to be had in mind:

Choice favours hath the Lord in store, and he is good and kind. [verse 5] To them that fear his holy name he giveth meat good store: Jehovah will be mindful of his cov'nant evermore. [verse 6] Clearly hath he declar'd to his, his works of powerfulness: Leaving to them the heritage, which heathens did possess. [verse 7] Most perfect are his handy-works, his judgments very pure: Not one of his commandements, but are exceeding sure. [verse 8] Stablisht they are for evermore, so that they cannot fade: And ev'n in truth and right'ousness each one of them is made. [verse 9] Plent'ous redemption he hath sent, to make his people free. So is his cov'nant evermore confirm'd by his decree. Know ye that holy is his name, and to be had in dread. [verse 10] Religious fear of God likewise, is wisdom's well-spring head. Sound understanding have they all, that carefully endeavour To practise his commandements: his praise endures for ever.
