Hounslow West Evangelical ChurchFor the director of music. A psalm of David. Rescue me, Lord, from evildoers; protect me from the violent,who devise evil plans in their hearts and stir up war every day.They make their tongues as sharp as a serpent’s; the poison of vipers is on their lips. Keep me safe, Lord, from the hands of the wicked; protect me from the […]
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.Your eyes saw my […]

Of David. I will praise you, Lord, with all my heart; before the ‘gods’ I will sing your praise.I will bow down towards your holy temple and will praise your name for your unfailing love and your faithfulness,for you have so exalted your solemn decree that it surpasses your fame.When I called, you answered me; you greatly emboldened me. May all […]
By the rivers of Babylon we sat and wept when we remembered Zion.There on the poplars we hung our harps,for there our captors asked us for songs, our tormentors demanded songs of joy; they said, ‘Sing us one of the songs of Zion!’ How can we sing the songs of the Lord while in a foreign land?If I forget you, Jerusalem, may […]

A song of ascents. Of David. How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity! It is like precious oil poured on the head, running down on the beard,running down on Aaron’s beard, down on the collar of his robe.It is as if the dew of Hermon were falling on Mount Zion.For there the Lord bestows his […]
A song of ascents. Lord, remember David and all his self-denial. He swore an oath to the Lord, he made a vow to the Mighty One of Jacob:‘I will not enter my house or go to my bed,I will allow no sleep to my eyes or slumber to my eyelids,till I find a place for the Lord, a dwelling for the Mighty […]
