Hymnal: The Psalms Hymns and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New Testament, faithfully translated into English Metre #PLXXXIX (1773) Hymnal Title: The Psalms Hymns and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New Testament, faithfully translated into English Metre First Line: The mercies of JEHOVAH sing Lyrics: 1 The mercies of JEHOVAH sing
for evermore will I:
I'll with my mouth thy truth make known
to all posterity.
2 For I have said, Thy mercy shall
for ever built remain;
Thou in the heav'ns thy faithfulness
wilt stedfastly maintain.
3 For with the man whom I did chuse
a covenant I made,
And to my servant David sware,
to what I promised;
4 That I thy seed establish will
for ever to endure,
And will to generations all,
build up thy throne most sure.
5 And so the heav'ns thy wonders, LORD,
shall with thy praises ring;
While thine assembled saints on earth,
thy faithfulness shall sing.
6 For with JEHOVHAH, who is he,
in heav'n we can compare?
Who like the LORD among the sons
of earthly GODS is there?
[2 Part]
7 God greatly in the church of saints,
is to be had in fear,
And to be reverenc'd of all
that round about Him are.
8 O LORD of hosts, O mighty JAH,
who like Thee can there be?
Thy faithfulness on ev'ry side,
does round encompass Thee.
9 Over the raging of the sea,
Thou dost dominion bear:
When as the waves thereof arise,
by Thee they stilled are.
10 Rahab Thou hast in pieces broke,
and like one slain she lies;
And with thy mighty arm hast Thou,
dispers'd thine enemies.
11 The heav'ns are thine, the earth is thine,
which Thou alone hast made;
The world with all it's fulness; Thou
hast it's foundations laid.
12 The north and south sides of the world,
Thou didst extend and frame.
Tabor and Hermon, mountains high,
shall triumph in thy name.
[3 Part]
13 Thou hast an arm of mighty pow'r,
thy hand in strength is great,
And that supreme right hand of thine
aloft on high is set.
14 Justice and judgment on thy throne,
have their sure dwelling place:
Mercy and truth join'd hand in hand,
shall go before thy face.
15 O blessed are the people who
the joyful sound do know;
LORD, in Thy countenance's light,
they up and down shall go.
16 They in thy name shall, all the day,
rejoice exceedingly;
And in thy righteousness shall they
Be lifted up on high.
17 Because the glory of their strength
they yield alone to Thee;
And in thy favour shall our horn
of pow'r exalted be.
18 Because JEHOVAH is our shield,
who safety gives alone;
And He who is our sov'reign King
is Isr'ls HOLY ONE.
[4 Part]
19 In vision then Thou to thy saints,
didst speak, 'I'll help impose,
'On One that's mighty, whom i rais'd,
'and from the people chose.
20 'Among them David I have found,
'a servant true to Me;
'And with my holy oyl my King
'anointed him to be.
21 'With whom my hand shall firmly be,
'mine arm shall make him strong;
22 'On him the foe shall not exact,
'nor son of mischief wrong.
23 'And I'll beat down before his face
'all his malicious foes;
'And will them greatly plague who shall
'in hatred him oppose.
24 'But lo, my mercy and my truth
'with him shall be the same;
'His horn of pow'r shall be on high
'exalted in my name.
25 'His hand of pow'r shall reach afar;
'I'll set it on the sea:
'And on the rivers his right hand,
'extended wide shall be.
26 'To me, my father, God, and rock
'of safety, he shall cry:
27 'I'll place him my first born, above
'all kings in dignity.
28 'My mercy I will keep for him
'to times which eve last;
'Also my covenant with him,
'shall be establish'd fast.
29 'His offspring also will I make,
'ev'n to remain always;
And I establish will his throne,
'as heav'ns eternal days.
30 'But if his sons forsake my law,
'and from my judgments swerve;
31 'If they my statutes violate,
'my precepts not observe;
32 'Their bold transgressions with the rod,
'then visit sore will I,
'and I with scourges visit will
'their cross iniquity.
33 'My loving kindness yet from him
'I'll take not utterly,
'Nor suffer will in any wise
'my faithfulness to lie.
34 'The covenant I made with him
'by me shall not be broke:
'and what my lips have once pronounc'd,
'I never will revoke.
35 'Can I to David lie, when by
'my holiness I've sworn.
36 'Before me last his seed and throne,
'perpetual as the sun;
37 'And as the moon by my decree,
'on high establish'd fast,
'In heav'n a faithful witness set,
'for evermore to last. (Selah)
[5 Part]
38 But not Thou seem'st to cast me off,
and to abandon me;
And with thine own anointed one,
exceeding wroth to be.
39 Thou seem'st to null thy covenant
with him thy servant made:
His diadem Thou hast profan'd,
and in the dust hast laid.
40 His hedges all hast broken down,
his fortresses laid waste;
41 He's spoil'd by every passenger,
by neighbours round disgrac'd.
42 His foes right hand Thou hast advanc'd,
and made them all be glad;
43 Turn'd his sword's edge, and him to stand,
in battle hast not made.
44 His glory Thou hast made to cease,
his throne cast to the ground;
45 His youthful days made short to be,
with shame dost him confound.
[6 Part]
46 How long, LORD, wilt Thou hide thy self?
shall it for ever be?
How long like as a burning fire
shall we thine anger see?
47 O call to mind how short a time,
I shall on earth remain.
Wherefore hast Thou employ'd thy pow'r,
to make all men in vain?
48 What man is he that lives on earth,
who death shall never see?
Or from the graves prevailing pow'r,
what man his soul can free?
49 Thy former loving kindnesses,
Lord, where do they appear,
Which in thy truth and faithfulness,
to David Thou didst swear?
50 Remember Lord, with what reproach,
they servants treated are;
How all the mighty people's scoffs,
I in my bosom bear.
51 The scoffs wherewith thy foes, O LORD,
reproach have laid upon
the steps of thy MESSIAH dear,
thine own anointed one.
52 But bless'd forever be the LORD
who doth for ever reign;
And let the world with one accord
resound, AMEN, AMEN. Scripture: Psalm 89 Languages: English

Hymnal: The Psalms, Hymns, and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New-Testament #PLXXXIX (1742) Hymnal Title: The Psalms, Hymns, and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New-Testament First Line: The mercies of Jehovah sing Lyrics: 1 The mercies of Jehovah sing
For evermore will I:
I'll with my mouth thy truth make known
To all posterity.
2 For I have said that mercy shall
For ever be up-built:
Establish in the very heav'ns,
Thy faithfulness thou wilt.
3 With him that is my chosen one
A cov'nant made I have
And to my servant David I
By oath this promise gave.
4 To perpertuity thy seed
Establish sure I will;
Likewise to generations all
Thy throne I'll build up still. Selah.
5 Also the heavens thy wonders, Lord,
They shall thy praise confess:
Within th' assembly of the same
Likewise thy faithfulness.
6 For to the Lord the heav'ns within
Who is't we can compare?
Who's like the Lord among the sons
Of them that mighty are.
[2]
7 God greatly in the church of saints
Is to be had in fear;
And to be reverenc'd of all those
That round about him are.
8 Jehovah, O thou God of hosts,
Strong JAH, who's like to thee?
Thy faithfulness on ev'ry side,
Doth round encompass thee.
9 Over the raging of the sea
Thou dost dominion bear;
When as the waves thereof arise
By thee they stilled are.
10 Like to one slain thou broken hast
In pieces Rahab quite:
Thou hast disperst thine enemies,
Ev'n by thine arm of might.
11 To thee the heavens do belong,
The earth likewise to thee.
The world with fulness of the same:
By thee they founded be.
12 The north together with the south.
Thou didst create the same:
Tabor likewise and Hermon's hill
Rejoyce shall in thy name.
[3]
13 Thou hast a very mighty arm,
Thy hand in strength is great;
And also that right hand of thine
Aloft on high is set.
14 The habitation of thy throne,
Justice and judgment are,
Their way before thy face to go
Both grace and truth prepare.
15 O blessed are the people who
The joyful sound do know;
Lord in thy countenances light
They up and down shall go.
16 They all the day shall in thy name
Rejoyce exceedingly;
And in thy righteousness shall they
Be lifted up on high.
17 Because that thou art of their strength
The glorious dignity:
Our horn it shall exalted be
In thy benignity.
18 Because Jehovah is to us
A safe protection;
And he that is our sovereign
Is Isr'ls holy One.
[4]
19 Then didst thou speak in vision
Unto thy saints, and said,
On such an one as mighty is
I have salvation laid.
20 One chosen from the folk I rais'd,
My servant David I
Have found, him I anointed with
My oyl of sanctity.
21 With whom my hand shall 'stablish'd be
Mine arm him strengthen shall
22 Also the enemy shall not
Exact on him at all:
Nor shall the sons of wickedness
Afflict him any more.
23 Before him I'll beat down his foes
And plague his haters sore.
24 My mercy yet and verity
With him shall be the same:
His horn likewise shall be on high
Exalted in my name.
25 Moreover I within the sea
Will cause his hand to stand;
Likewise within the rivers I
Will settle his right hand.
26 To me my father, thou my god,
And health's rock, he shall cry.
27 And I will make him my first-born,
Then earthly kings more high.
28 My mercy I will keep for him
To times which eve last:
With him also my covenant
Shall be establish'd fast.
[5]
29 Moreover I his seed will make
for to endure always;
And I his throne establish will
Like as of heav'n the days.
30 If that his sons forsake my law,
And from my judgments swerve:
31 If they my statutes break, and do
My precepts not observe.
32 Their bold transgressions with the rod
Then visit sore will I;
Likewise with stripes I visit will
Their cross iniquity.
33 My loving kindness yet from him
Away take will not I:
Nor suffer will in any wise
My faithfulness to lye.
34 The cov'nant I have made with him
Shall not by me be broke:
That which is gone out of my lips
I never will revoke.
35 Once sware I by my holiness,
If I to David lie.
36 His seed assuredly shall last
To perpetuity.
And like the sun 'for me his throne
37 It like the moon shall slay:
And as in heav'n a witness true
Shall stablish'd be for aye.
[6]
38 But thou hast cast off and abhorr'd
Wroth with thine ointed one
39 Thou art. Thy servants covenant
Thou hast made it as none:
By casting down unto the ground
Thou hast prophan'd his crown.
40 His forts to ruin thou hast brought,
His hedges all broke down.
41 All spoil him by the way that pass,
His neighbour's scorn he's made.
42 His foes right hand thou hat extoll'd,
Thou mad'st his en'mies glad.
43 Thou of his sword the edge hast turn'd
Nor mad'st him stand in sight.
44 Thou hast his crown cast to the ground,
And fails his glory bright.
45 Yea of his youthful years the days
Thou hast diminished;
All over with confusion too
Thou hast him covered.
46 How long, Jehovah, wilt thou hide
thy self for evermore?
Like as a burning fire abide
Shall thy displeasure sore?
47 To thy remembrance do thou call,
How short a time have I:
Wherefore hast thou created all
Men's sons to vanity?
48 What man alive in strength so great
That death he shall not see?
That from the hand of grave shall set
His soul at liberty. Selah.
49 Thy former loving kindnesses,
O Lord, where are they now?
Which in thy truth and faithfulness
To David thou didst vow?
50 O Lord do thou thy servant's scorn
Unto remembrance call;
How in my breast I have it born
From mighty people all.
51 Wherewith, O Lord, thine enemies
Me cast reproach upon,
Wherewith they do reproach the steps
Of thine anointed one.
52 O let Jehovah blessed be
to generations all:
Amen, so let it be also
Amen, be so it shall.
