Hounslow West Evangelical ChurchFor the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. A psalm. God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. There is a river […]
Listen, daughter, and pay careful attention: Forget your people and your father’s house.Let the king be enthralled by your beauty; honour him, for he is your lord.The city of Tyre will come with a gift, people of wealth will seek your favour.All glorious is the princess within her chamber; her gown is interwoven with gold.In embroidered garments she is […]
For the director of music. To the tune of ‘Lilies’. Of the Sons of Korah. A maskil. A wedding song. My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses for the king; my tongue is the pen of a skilful writer. You are the most excellent of men and your lips have been anointed […]
For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. A maskil. We have heard it with our ears, O God; our ancestors have told uswhat you did in their days, in days long ago.With your hand you drove out the nations and planted our ancestors;you crushed the peoples and made our ancestors flourish.It was not by their sword […]
For the director of music. A maskil of the Sons of Korah. As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, my God.My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God?My tears have been my food day and night,while people say to me all day […]
For the director of music. A psalm of David. Blessed are those who have regard for the weak; the Lord delivers them in times of trouble.The Lord protects and preserves them – they are counted among the blessed in the land – he does not give them over to the desire of their foes.The Lord sustains them on their sick-bed and restores them from their bed of […]
Sacrifice and offering you did not desire – but my ears you have opened; – burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not require.Then I said, ‘Here I am, I have come – it is written about me in the scroll.I desire to do your will, my God; your law is within my heart.’ I proclaim your saving acts in the great assembly; I […]
For the director of music. Of David. A psalm. I waited patiently for the Lord; he turned to me and heard my cry.He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire;he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand.He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of […]
For the director of music. For Jeduthun. A psalm of David. I said, ‘I will watch my ways and keep my tongue from sin;I will put a muzzle on my mouth while in the presence of the wicked.’So I remained utterly silent, not even saying anything good.But my anguish increased; my heart grew hot within me.While I meditated, the […]
A psalm of David. A petition. Lord, do not rebuke me in your anger or discipline me in your wrath.Your arrows have pierced me, and your hand has come down on me.Because of your wrath there is no health in my body; there is no soundness in my bones because of my sin.My guilt has overwhelmed me like a […]
