the Lords servants faithfull and true:
Come praise the Lord every degree,
with such songs as to him are due.
O ye that stand in the Lords house,
even in our owne Gods mansion:
Praise ye the Lord so bounteous,
which worketh our salvation.
Lift up your hands in his holy place,
yea and that in the time of night:
Praise ye the Lord which gives all grace,

Then shall the Lord out of Sion,
which made heaven and earth by his power:
Give to you and your nation,
his blessing, mercy, and favour.
Glory be to the Father, &c.

The X. Commandements of God
Author: W. W. Hymnal: WBPF1640 #87e (1640) First Line: Attend my people and give eare Lyrics: Attend my people ad give eare,
Of setly things I will thee tell:
See that my word in mind thou beare
And to my precepts listen well.
1 I am thy soveraigne Lord and God,
Which have thee brought fro careful thral
And eke reclaim'd from Pharaohs rod,
Make thee no gods on them to call.
2 Nor fashioned some of any things
In heaven or earth to worship in
For I thy God by revenging
With grievous plagues this sin will smite.
3 Take not in vaine his holy Name,
Abuse it not after thy will,
For so thou mightest soone purchase blame
And in his wrath he would thee spill.
4 The Lord from work the seventh day ceast,
And brought all things to perfect end:
So thou and thine that day take rest,
That to Gods hests ye may attend.
5 Unto thy parents honour give,
As Gods commandements do intend:
That hou long daies and good maist live
In earth, where Gods place doth lend.
6 Beware of murder and cruell hate,
7 All filthy fornication feare.
8 See thou steale not in any rate.
9 False witnesse against no man bear.
10 Thy neighbours house with not to have,
His wife, or ought that he cals mine:
His field, his Oxe, his Asse, his slave,
Or any thing which is not thine.
A Prayer:
The Spirit of grace grant us O Lord,
To keep these lawes our hearts restore
And cause us all with one accord,
To magnifie thy Name therefore.
For of our selves no strenght we have
To keep these lawes after thy will:
Thy might therefore O Christ we crave,
That we in thee may them fulfill.
Lord for thy Names sake grant us this,
Thou art our strength, O Saviour Christ:
Of thee to speed how should we misse,
In whom our treasure doth consist?
To thee for evermore be praise,
With the Father in each respect,
And with the holy Spirit alwaies,
The conforter of thine elect. Scripture: Exodus 20 Languages: English Tune Title: [Attend my people and give eare]
The X. Commandements of God
Our Father which in heaven art
Author: D. Coxe Hymnal: WBPF1640 #88 (1640) Lyrics: Our Father which in heaven art,
And mak'st us all one brother hood,
To call upon thee with one heart,
Our heavenly Father and our god.
Grant we pray not with lips alone,
But with our hearts deepe sigh and grone.
Thy blessed Name be sanctified,
Thy holy Word might us inflame,
In holy life for to abide,
To magnifie thy holy Name.
From all errors defend and keep
The little flock of thy poore sheep.
Thy kingdome come even at this houre
And henceforth everlastingly:
Thine holy Ghost into us powre,
With all his gifts most plenteously,
From Sathans rape and filthy band,
Defend us with thy mighty hand.
Thy will be done with diligence,
Like as in heaven, in earth also:
In trouble grant us patience,
Thee to obey in wealth and wo.
Let not flesh, bloud or any ill
Prevaile against thy holy will.
Give us this day our daily bread,
And all other good gifts of thine:
Keep us from war and from bloud-shed,
Also from sickness, dearth and pine,
That we may live in quietnesse,
Without all greedy carefullnesse.
Forgive us our offences all,
Relieve our carefull conscience:
As we forgive both great and small,
Which unto us have done offence.
Prepare us Lord for to serve thee
in perfect love and unity.
O Lord into temptation,
Lead us not when the fiend doth rage:
To withstand his invasion,
Give power and strength to every age.
Arme and make strong thy feeble host
With faith and with the Holy Ghost.
O Lord from evill deliver us,
The daies and times are dangerous:
From everlasting death save us,
And in our last need comfort us.
A blessed end to us bequeath,
Into thy hands our soules recieve
For thou, O Lord, are King of kings,
And thou hast power over all:
Thy glory shineth in all things,
In the wide world universall.
Amen, let it be done, O Lord,
That we have praid with one accord.

Hymnal: WBPF1640 #89a (1640) First Line: All my beliefe and confidence Lyrics: All my beliefe and confidence,
is in the Lord of might:
The Father which all things hath made,
the day and eke the night.
The heavens and the firmament,
and also every starre,
The earth and all that is therin,
which passe mans reason farre.
And in like manner I believe
in Christ our Lord his Sonne:
Coequall with the Deitie,
and man in flesh and bone.
Conceived by the Holy Ghost,
his word doth me assure:
And of his mother Mary borne,
ye she a Virgin pure.
Because mankind to Satan was
for sin in bond and thrall:
He came and offered up himselfe
to death to save us all.
And suffering most grievous paine,
then Pilate being Judge:
Was crucified on the Crosse,
and therat did not grudge.
And so he died in the flesh,
but quickned in the sprite:
His body then was buried,
as is our use and right.
His soule did after this descend
into the lower parts:
A dread unto the wicked spirits,
but joy to faithfull hearts.
And in the third day of his death
he rose to life againe:
To th'end he might be glorifi'd,
out of all griefe and paine.
Ascending to the heavens high,
to sit in glory still,
On Gods right hand his Father deare,
according to his will.
Untill the day of judgements come,
when he shall come againe
With Angels power (yet of that day
we all be uncertaine)
To judge all people righteously,
whom he hat dearely bought:
The living and the dead also,
which he hath made of nought.
And in the holy Spirit of God,
(my faith to satisfie)
The third person in Trinity,
believe i stedfastly.
The holy Catholke Church,
that God's Word doth maintaine:
And holy Scripture doth allow
which Satan doth disdaine.
And also I do trust to have
by Jesus Christ his death:
Release and pardon of my sins,
and that only by faith.
What time all flesh shall rise againe
before the Lord of might:
And see him with their bodily eyes,
which now do give them light.
And then shall Christ our Saviour
the sheep and goats divide:
And give life everlastingly,
to those whom he hath tri'd,
Within his Realme celestiall,
in glory for to rest:
With all his holy company
of Saints and Angels blest.
Which serve the Lord omnipotent
obediently each houre:
To whom be all dominion,
and praise for evermore. Languages: English Tune Title: [All my beliefe and confidence]

A prayer to the holy Ghost, to be sung before the Sermon
Hymnal: WBPF1640 #89b (1640) First Line: Come holy Spirit the God of might Lyrics: Come holy Spirit the God mof might,
comforter of us all:
Teach us to know thy Word aright,
that we do never fall.
O Holy Ghost visit our coast,
defend us with thy shield:
Against all sin and wickednesse,
Lord help us wen the field.
Lord keep our King and his Concell,
and give them will and might
To preserve in they Gospell,
which can put sin to flight.
O Lord that giv'st thy holy word
send Preachers plenteously:
That in the same we may accord,
and therein live and die.
O holy Spirit direct aright
The Preachers of thy word,
That then by them maist cut down sin,
as it were with a sword.
Depart not from thy Pastors pure,
but aid them at their need.
Which breake to us the bread of life,
whereon our soles do feed.
O blessed Spriit of truth keep us
in peace and unity:
Keep us from sects and errors all,
and from all Papistry.
Convert all those that are our foes,
and bring them to thy light,
That they and we may well agree,
and praise thee day and night.
O Lord increase our faith in us,
and love so to abound:
That man and wife be void of strive,
and neighbours about us round.
In our time give thy peace O Lord,
to nations farre and nigh:
And teach them all thy holy Word,
that we may sing to thee.
All glory to the Trinity,
that is of mighties most:
The living Father and the Sonne,
and eke the Holy Ghost.
As it hath been in all the time
that hath beene heretofore,
As it is now, and so shall be
henceforth for evermore.

Da pacem Domine
Hymnal: WBPF1640 #90a (1640) First Line: Give peace to these our daies, O Lord Lyrics: Give peace in these our daies O Lord,
Great dangers are now at hand:
Thine enemies with one accord,
Christs name in every land,
Seek to deface, root out and race
Thy true right worship indeed:
Be thou our stay,
Lord we thee pray,
Thou helpst alone in all need.
Give us that peace that we do lack
Through misbeleefe and ill life:
Thy Word to offer thou dost not slack
Which we unkindly gain-strive,
With fire and sword,
This helathfull word,
Some persecute and oppresse,
Soone with the mouth
Confesse the truth,
Without sincere godlinesse.
Give peace, and us thy Spirit down send
With griefe and repentance true,
Pierce thou our hearts, our lives amend,
And by fiath in Christ renew.
That feare and dread
Warre and bloud-shed,
Through thy sweet mercy and grace,
May from us slide,
Thy truth may bide,
And shine in every palce. Languages: English Tune Title: [Give peace to these our daies, O Lord]

The Lamentation
Hymnal: WBPF1640 #90b (1640) First Line: O Lord in thee is all my trust Lyrics: O Lord to thee is all my trust,
give eare unto my wofull cry:
Refuse me not that am unjust,
but bowing down thy heavenly eye:
Behold how I do still lament
my sinnes wherein I do offend:
O Lord for them shall I be shent,
sith thee to please I do intend.
No, no, not for thy will is bent,
to deale with sinners in thine ire:
But when in heart they shall repent,
thou grantst with speed their just desire,
To thee therefore still shall I crie,
to wash away my sinfull crime:
Thy bloud O Lord is not yet drie,
but that it may help me in time.
Haste thee o Lord, haste thee I say,
to poure on me thy gifts of grace:
That when this life shall flit away,
in heaven with thee I may have place:
Where thou dost raigne eternally,
with God which once did down thee send
Where Angels sing continually,
to thee be praise world without end. Languages: English Tune Title: [O Lord in thee is all my trust]
The Lamentation
A Thanksgiving after receiving of the Lord's Supper
Hymnal: WBPF1640 #91 (1640) First Line: The Lord be thanked for his gifts Lyrics: The Lord be thanked for his gifts
and mercies evermore,
That he doth shew unto his Saints,
to him be Lord therefore.
Our tongues cannot so praise the Lord,
as he of right deserves:
Our hearts cannot of him so think,
as he us all preserves.
His benefits they be so great
to us that be but sin:
That at our hands for recompence,
there is no hope to win.
O sinfull flesh that thou shouldst have,
such mercies of the Lord,
Thou dost deserve more worthily
of him to be abhord.
Noght els but sin and wretchednesse
doth rest within our hearts:
And stubbornly against the Lord
we daily play our parts.
The Sun above in firmament,
that is to us a light:
Doth shew it selfe more cleare and pure
than we be in his sight.
The hevens above and all therein
more holy are than we:
They serve the Lord in their estate,
each one in his degree.
They doe not strive for mastership,
nor slack their oaffice set:
But serve the Lord and do his will
hate is to them no let.
Also the earth and all therein,
of God it is in awe:
It doth observe the Formers will,
by skilfull natures law.
The sea and all that is therein
doth bend when God doth beck:
The spirits benenath do tremble all,
and feare his wrathfull check.
But we alas for whom all these
were made them for to rule,
Do not so know or love the Lord,
as doth the Oxe or Mule.
A Law he gave for us to know
what was his holy will:
He would us good, but we would not
avoid the thing is ill.
Nor one of us that seeketh not
the Lord of life to please:
Nor doth the thing thatmight us led
to Christ and quiet ease.
Thus are we all his enemeies,
we can it not denie:
And he againe of his good will
would not that we should die.
Therefore when remedy was none
to brint us unto life,
The Son of God our flesh he took,
to end our mortall strife
And all the law of God the Lord
he did it full obey:
And for our sins upon the Crosse
his bloud our debts did pay.
And that we should not yet forget
what good he to us wrought:
A signe he left our eyes to tell,
that he our bodies brought:
In Bread and Wine here visible,
unto thine eyes and taste,
His mercies great thou maist record,
if that his Spirit thou hast.
As once the corne did live and grow,
ans was cut down with sithe,
And threshed out with many stripes,
out from his husk to drive:
And as the mill with violence,
did teare it out so small:
And made it like to earthly dust,
not sparing it at all.
And as the oven with fire hot
did close it up with heat:
And all this done that I have said,
that it should be our meat.
So was the Lord in his ripe age
cut down by cruell death:
His soule he gave in troments great,
and yeelded up his breath.
Because that he to us might be
an everlasting read:
With much reproach and troubles great
on earth his life he led.
And as the grapes in pleasant time
are pressed very sore:
And plucked down when they be ripe,
and let to grow no more.
Because the juyce that in them is,
as comfortable drink,
We might receive and joyfull be,
when sorrowes make us shrink.
So Christ his bloud out pressed was
with nailes and eke with speare:
The juyce thereof doth save all those
that rightly do him feare.
And as the cornes by unity
into one loafe are knit:
So is the Lord and his whole Church,
though he in heaven sit.
As many grapes make but one wine,
so should we be but one
In faith and love in Christ above,
and unto Christ alone.
Leading a life without all strife,
in quiet rest and peace:
From envy and from malice both,
our hearts and tongues to cease.
Which if we do, then shall we shew
that we his chosen be:
By faith in him to lead a life,
as alwaies willed he.
And that we may so do indeed,
God send us all his grace:
Then after death we shall be sure
with him to have a place.

Preseve us Lord by thy deare Word
