Psalm
95
[Recommended tunes: Gainsborough, Dunfermline, Glenluce]
|
1O come, let us sing to the Lord:
come, let us ev'ry one
A
joyful noise make to the Rock
of our salvation.
|
|
2Let us before his presence come
with praise and thankful voice;
Let
us sing psalms to him with grace,
and make a joyful noise.
|
|
3For God, a great God, and great King,
above all gods he is.
4Depths of the earth are in his hand,
the strength of hills is his.
|
|
5To him the spacious sea belongs,
for he the same did make;
The
dry land also from his hands
its form at first did take.
|
|
6O come, and let us worship him,
let us bow down withal,
And
on our knees before the Lord
our Maker let us fall.
|
|
7For he's our God, the people we
of his own pasture are,
And
of his hand the sheep; to-day,
if ye his voice will hear,
|
|
8Then harden not your hearts, as in
the provocation,
As
in the desert, on the day
of the tentation:
|
|
9When me your fathers tempt'd and prov'd,
and did my working see;
10Ev'n for the space of forty years
this race hath grieved me.
|
|
I
said, This people errs in heart,
my ways they do not know:
11To whom I sware in wrath, that to
my rest they should not go.
