The Book of Common Prayer, and Administration of the Sacraments

The spacious earth is all the Lord's..

xxiv.

The strong foundations of the earth..
The wicked I in power have seen...
The wonders which thy laws contain.
Thine is the cheerful day, O Lord...
Thou art the righteous Judge, in whom.
Though wicked men grow rich or great..
Thou, gracious God, art my defence..
Thou, Lord, by strictest search hast known.
Thou suit'st, O Lord, thy righteous ways..
Through all the changing scenes of life..
Thus God declares his sovereign will...
Thy chastening wrath, O Lord, restrain.
Thy constant blessing, Lord, bestow
Thy mercies, Lord, shall be my song..
Thy presence, Lord, hath me supplied.
Thy sacred word my joyful breast..
Thy wondrous power, Almighty Lord.
Thy word is to my feet a lamp...
To bless thy chosen race..

To celebrate thy praise, O Lord.

To God, in whom I trust...

To God, our nevér-failing strength.

To God, the mighty Lord.

To me, who am the workmanship..

To my complaint, O Lord my God..

lxxxvi.

To my request and earnest cry.

To Sion's hill I lift mine eyes
