Dwell (Psalm 1)
04:04
|
|||
|
Blessed is the man
Who does not walk with the wicked
Nor stand with the sinners
Nor sit with the scoffers
In the law of the Lord is his delight
And on this law dwells day and night
A tree firmly planted by streams of water
Yielding its fruit, its leaf does not wither
In whatever he does he matures and will prosper
The wicked, like chaff that the wind blows away
They will not stand on the judgement day
The Lord knows the way of the good and the righteous
But the way of the wicked shall fail and perish
The way of the wicked shall fail and perish
|
||||
2. |
Wait (Psalm 27)
04:46
|
|||
|
The Lord is my light and salvation
Whom shall I fear?
The Lord is my life's stronghold
Whom shall I fear?
Though evildoers assail
My heart will not fail
Whom shall I fear?
One thing I asked of the Lord
And will seek after
To dwell in the house of the Lord
Hide in his shelter
When days of trouble come
He will overcome
Whom shall I fear?
Wait, wait
Wait for the Lord
Be strong
Let your heart take courage
|

Ascribe (Psalm 29)
03:06
|
|||
|
Ascribe to the Lord
O you sons of God
Ascribe to the Lord glory and strength
Ascribe to the Lord
The glory due his name
Worship him in holy splendour
The voice of the Lord is over the waters
Majestic and powerful, his glory thunders
The voice of the Lord flashes forth fire
Shaking the wilderness, forests expire
Majestic and powerful, his glory thunders
Ascribe to the Lord
The glory due his name
Worship him in holy splendour
The voice of the Lord is over the waters
Majestic and powerful, his glory thunders
The voice of the Lord flashes forth fire
Shaking the wilderness, forests expire
Majestic and powerful, his glory thunders
He sits enthroned as King forever

Shout (Psalm 33)
02:07
|
|||
|
Shout for joy in the Lord, you righteous
For it is right to praise Him, you pious
Give thanks to the Lord and make a new melody
Shout for joy and play to Him skillfully
The Lord is true and full of faithfulness
He loves justice and he loves righteousness
The earth is full of his steadfast love
The heavens were made by the word of the Lord
By the breath of his mouth, the host was formed
The earth is full of his steadfast love
Stand in awe of the God of love
The earth is full of his steadfast love
|
||||
5. |
Clap (Psalm 47)
03:25
|
|||
|
Clap your hands all you nations, rise,
Shout to God with joyous cries
For the Lord most high is awesome
The great King over all creation
Sing to God, sing to our King, praise Him
He subdues the nations under us
Chose our heritage for he loves us
God ascends with trumpet and shout
Sing praise to Him, shout it out
Sing to God, sing to our King, praise Him
Of all the earth
Our God is King
Praise him with psalms
He reigns over everything
Sing to God, sing to our King, praise Him
|
||||
6. |
Sing (Psalm 67)
03:49
|
|||
|
May God be gracious
And may God bless us
Make his face
Shine upon us
So that his ways
May be known always
May all the people
Give him his praise
May the nations be glad
The nations rejoice
May the nations be glad
And lift up their voice
May the nations be glad
And sing for joy
Sing for joy
He rules with justice
He brings the harvest
And guides the nations
Makes known salvation
Sing, nations, sing
|
||||

Hope (Psalm 71)
03:27
|
|||
|
I take my refuge in you
Let me never be put to shame
In your righteousness, deliver me
Incline your ear and save
Be the rock to which I come
Rescue me from evil's hand
From the grasp of unjust man
For my hope is in the Lord
My trust, O Lord, from when I was born
Be the rock to which I come
But I will always hope in you
And praise you more and more
My lips will shout for joy to you
My soul, which you restore
Praise you for your faithfulness
Beyond me and before
Tell of all your righteousness
All day and evermore
You are my fortress of strength
My mouth is filled with your praise
God, don't be far from me
O God, make haste to save
Be the rock to which I come
But I will always hope in you
And praise you more and more
My lips will shout for joy to you
My soul, which you restore
Praise you for your faithfulness
Beyond me and before
Tell of all your righteousness
All day and evermore

Trust (Psalm 84)
04:17
|
|||
|
How lovely is your dwelling place
O Lord of hosts
My soul longs, yes, my soul faints
For your courts
My heart and flesh sing for joy
To the living God
Even the sparrow finds a home
The swallow finds a nest
At your altars, Lord of hosts
And in your house are blessed
My heart and flesh sing for joy
To the living God
Blessed are those whose strength is you
In whose heart are highways to Zion
From strength to strength, they go through
Blessed is the one who trusts in you
One day in your courts is best
Than thousands somewhere else
I would rather be near to you
Than in tents of wickedness
My heart and flesh sing for joy
To the living God
For the Lord is a sun and shield
The Lord bestows favour and honour
No good thing does he withhold
Blessed is the one who trusts in you
|
||||

Rejoice (Psalm 100)
04:16
|
|||
|
To the Lord make a joyful noise
Serve the Lord with gladness
Come before him and rejoice
It is he who made us
We are his people
The sheep of his pasture
We are his people
Before him gather
Enter his gates with thanksgiving
Enter his courts with praise
Give thanks to him; bless his name
His love endures always
For the Lord, he is good
Steadfast love forever
His faithfulness extends to all
It will fail never
|

Serve (Psalm 113)
03:48
|
|||
|
Praise the name of the Lord
You who serve him
Both now and evermore
Praise him
From the rising of the sun
To its setting place
The name of the Lord
Is to be praised
The Lord is exalted
Over nations, above heavens
Who is like the Lord our God
Who sits enthroned on high
Stooping down to see
You and I
The Lord is exalted
Over nations, above heavens
He lifts the needy from the ashes
Seats them with his people's princes
|

Call (Psalm 120)
02:32
|
|||
|
In my distress I called to the Lord
I called to the Lord, he answered me
Deliver me from lying lips
From deceitful tongue
What shall be given to you
What more shall be done?
Too long have I dwelt among
Those who hate peace
They are for war
I am for peace
|
||||
12. |
Know (Psalm 139)
06:24
|
|||
|
When I sit, when I rise
You know all
You search my path, my lying down
Know all my ways
Before a word is on my tongue
You know it completely
You hem me in, behind, before
Encompass me
Such thoughts are too wonderful
O Lord, O Lord
You have searched me and You know me
Where shall I go from Yourself,
From Your presence?
Up in heaven You are there
And down in Sheol
If I take the morning's wings
And dwell in the water
Even there Your hand will lead
Your hand shall hold me
Such thoughts are too wonderful
O Lord, O Lord
You have searched me and You know me
How precious are Your thoughts, O God
How vast their sum
If I would count them they are more
Than the sand
|
||||
13. |
Bow (Psalm 144)
03:12
|
|||
|
Blessed be the Lord, my rock,
Who trains my hands for war
He is steadfast love, my fortress
Refuge and my shield
What is man that you think of him?
Bow your heavens, Lord, come down
And stretch your hand on high
Like a breath
Like passing shadows
What is man that you think of him?
His days fade away
|
||||
14. |
Praise (Psalm 150)
02:17
|
|||
|
O praise ye the Lord! praise Him in the height;
Rejoice in His Word, ye angels of light;
Ye heavens, adore Him by Whom ye were made,
And worship before Him in brightness arrayed.
O praise ye the Lord! Praise Him upon earth,
In tuneful accord, ye sons of new birth;
Praise Him Who hath brought you His grace from above,
Praise Him Who hath taught you to sing of His love.
O praise ye the Lord! All things that give sound;
Each jubilant chord re-echo around;
Loud organs, His glory forth tell in deep tone,
And sweet harp, the story of what He hath done.
O praise ye the Lord! Thanksgiving and song
To Him be outpoured all ages along!
For love in creation, for Heaven restored,
For grace of salvation, O praise ye the Lord!
Amen, amen
