The booke of common prayer, and administration of the sacraments and other rites and ceremonies of the Church of England.

Te decet hymnus. Psal. 65.

THou, O God, art praised in Sion: and vnto thee shall the vow bee performed in Hierusalem.

Thou that hearest the prayer: vnto thee shall all flesh come.

My misdeeds preuaile against me: oh be thou merciful vnto our sinnes.

Blessed is the man whom thou choosest & receiued vnto thee: he shal dwel in thy court, & shalbe sa∣tisfid with y^e pleasures of thy house, euen of thy holy temple.

Thou shall shewe vs wonderfull things in thy righteous∣nes, O God of our saluation: thou that art the hope of all the endes of the earth, and of them that remaine in the broad sea.

Which in his streangth setteth fast the mountaines; and is 〈◊〉〈◊〉 about with power.

Which stilleth the raging of the Sea: and the noise of his waues, and the madnesse of his people.

They also that dwell in the vettermost parts of the earth, shall be afraid at thy tokens: thou that makest the outgoings of the morning and euning to praise thee.

Thou bistest the earth, and blessest it: thou makest it very plenteous.

The riuer of God is full of water: thou preparest their corne, for so thou prouidest for the earth.

Thou waterest her furrowes, thou sendest raine into the little valleyes thereof: thou makest it soft with the drops of raine, and blessest the increase of it.

Thou crownest the yeere with thy goodnesse: and thy clouds drop fatnesse.

They shall drop vpon the dwellings of the wildernesse: and the lilttle hilles shall reioice on euery side.

The folds shalbe ful of sheepe: the ballelyes also shal stand so thicke with corne, that they shall laugh and sing.
