Old Testament

Psalms 66:6-16 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

6. Into dry land the sea he turn'd,and they a passage had;Ev'n marching through the flood on foot,there we in him were glad.

7. He ruleth ever by his pow'r;his eyes the nations see:O let not the rebellious oneslift up themselves on high.

8. Ye people, bless our God; aloudthe voice speak of his praise:

9. Our soul in life who safe preserves,our foot from sliding stays.

10. For thou didst prove and try us, Lord,as men do silver try;

11. Brought'st us into the net,and mad'st bands on our loins to lie.

12. Thou hast caus'd men ride o'er our heads;and though that we did passThrough fire and water, yet thou brought'stus to a wealthy place.

13. I'll bring burnt off 'rings to thy house;to thee my vows I'll pay,

14. Which my lips utter'd, my mouth spake,when trouble on me lay.

15. Burnt-sacrifices of fat ramswith incense I will bring;Of bullocks and of goats I willpresent an offering.

16. All that fear God, come, hear, I'll tellwhat he did for my soul.
