What reward shall I give unto the Lord for all the benefits that he hath done unto me?I will receive the cup of salvation and call upon the Name of the Lord.I will pay my vows now in the presence of all His people; right dear in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.Behold,…

Save me, O God, for the waters are come in, even unto my soul.I stick fast in the deep mire, where no ground is; I am come into deep waters, so that the floods run over me. And why? for thy sake have I suffered reproof; shame hath covered my face.I am become a stranger unto my brethren, even…

In thee, O Lord, have I put my trust, let me never be put to confusion, but rid me, and deliver me, in thy righteousness; incline thine ear unto me, and save me.Be thou my strong hold, whereunto I may alway resort; thou hast promised to help me, for thou art my house of defence, and my…

I have declared thy righteousness in the great congregation; lo, I will not refrain my lips, O Lord, and that thou knowest.I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; my talk hath been of thy truth, and of thy salvation.I have not kept back thy loving mercy and truth from the great congregation.
