 The Psalms and Hymns contained in this 
 volume have been selected by the united 
 labours of the Clergy of the Parish of Isling- 
 ton, from various approved Collections. 
 
 The Editors cannot but express their 
 obligation to the Rev. H. F. Lyte, for per- 
 mitting them to enrich their Selection with 
 several Psalms extracted from his original 
 Versions of the Psalms of David.* 
 
 It has been the endeavour of the Editors 
 to give the Hymns in their original forms : 
 though it has been difficult, and often impos- 
 sible, to ascertain the authentic versions, 
 amidst the numerous varieties which have 
 appeared. In a few cases, also, alterations, 
 which appeared to have been so generally 
 adopted as to have acquired the character 
 
 ♦"The Spirit of the Psalms, or the Psalma of 
 David adapted to Christian Worship, by the Rev. H. 
 F. Lyte, M. A., Minister of Lower Brixham."

 of established emendations, have been admit- 
 ted. 
 
 A systematic arrangement of the Hymns has 
 been adopted, together with Titles and appro- 
 priate Texts for each Hymn, in the hope of 
 assisting those who desire to " sing with the 
 understanding;" (i Cor. xiv. 15.) 
 
 The Editors humbly trust and pray that 
 the CoUection thus prepared by them, for th6 
 use of their Congregations, may be blessed by 
 the Great Head of the Church, as a means of 
 animating and leading the adoration of His 
 worshippers; and of thus advancing the edifi- 
 cation of that " Church which He purchased 
 with His own blood."

 PSALM 1, (T'sD). 
 
 The Blessedness of the Righteous, 
 
 O, HOW blest the man, whose ear 
 Impious counsels shuns to hear, 
 Who nor treads nor ioves the way 
 Where the sons of folly stray; 
 But, possess'd with sacred awe, 
 Meditates, Great God, thy. law; 
 This by day his fixt employ. 
 This by night his constant joy! 
 
 Like the pros'prous tree, that grows 
 Where the stream refreshing Hows, 
 He his verdant branch shall spread, 
 Nor his sick'ning leaves shall shed. — 
 See, ah see, a different fate 
 God's obdurate foes await! 
 See them, to his wrath consigned, 
 Fly like chaff before the wind ! 
 
 When thy Judge, earth, shall come, 
 And to each assign his doom; 
 Say, shall then the impious band 
 With the iust assembled stand? 
 These th' Almighty, these alone, 
 Objects of his love shall own;

 Assumes his regal seat, 
 While all the armies oi the sky 
 Lie prostrate at his feet. 
 
 2 There shall he lift his glorious head, 
 
 And his hiffh throne maintain; 
 Shtil strike the Powers and Princes dead. 
 Who dare oppose llis reign. 
 
 3 Be v;'se, ye Rulers of the earth, 
 
 Obey th' Anointed Lord, ^ 
 Adore the King of heavenly birth, 
 And tremble at his word. 
 
 4 With humble love address his throne. 
 
 For if HE frown ye die , 
 Those are secure, and those alone, 
 Who on his grace rely.

 To thee will I direct my prayer, 
 
 To thee lift up mine eye. 
 Oft to thy House will I resort.

 may thy Spirit guide my feet 
 
 In ways of righteousness, 
 Make every path of duty straight,

 With mighty cries and tears; 
 God heard him in that dreadful day, 
 And chas'd away his fears. 
 
 2 Great was the vict'ry of his death. 
 
 His throne exalted high ; 
 And all the kindreds of the earth 
 Shall worship or shall die. 
 
 3 A numerous offspring shall arise 
 
 From his expiring groans, 
 They shall be reckon'd in his eyes 
 For daughters and for sons. 
 
 4 The meek and humble souls shall see 
 
 His table richly spread; 
 And all that seek the Lord shall be 
 With joys immortal fed. 
 
 5 The isles shall know the righteousness 
 
 Of our Incarnate God, 
 And nations yet unborn profess 
 Salvation in his blood.

 And all my midnight hours defend.

 And vow the remnant of my days ; 
 Yet when at best can I pretend 
 Worthy such gifts from such a friend ?

 Enrich my soul with grace divine, 
 And make it worthier to be thine .

 Thou laid'st that glory by ; 
 First in our mortal flesh to serve, 
 Then in that flesh to die.

 CHRISTIAN WARFARE.

 He teacheth my hands to war. — Psalm xviii. 34. 
 
 ARISE, ye saints, arise I 
 
 The Lora our leader is ; 
 The foe before his banner flies^ 
 
 For victory is hi*. 
 
 Behold ! He leads the way I 
 
 We'll follow where he goes : 
 We cannot fail to win the day. 
 
 Since he subdues our foes. 
 
 We soon shall see the day 
 
 When toil and strife shall cease ; 
 We then shall cast our arms away, 
 
 And dwell in endless peace. 
 
 This hope supports us here. 
 
 It makco our burdens light ; 
 'Twill serve our drooping hearts to cheer. 
 
 Till faith shall end in sight : 
 
 TiU, of the prize possess'd, 
 
 We hear of war no more. 
 And, O sweet thought ! for ever rest 
 
 On yonder peaceful shore*

 Whp art thou cast dowriy O my soul? and why art thou 
 disquiefed within me ? Hope in God : for I Hhall yet 
 praise Him, who is the health of my countenance, and 
 my God. — P^alm xliii. 5. 
 
 1 O MY soul I what means this sadness ? 
 Wherefore art thou thus cast down ? 
 Let thy griefs be tum'd to gladness, 
 Bid thy restless fears be gone : 
 
 Look to Jesus I 
 Thou by faith with him art one.

 Harass thee from day to day, 
 And thy sinful inclinations 
 Often fill thee with dismay ; 
 
 Thou shalt conquer, 
 Through the Lamb's redeeming blood* 
 
 3 Though distresses now attend thee, 
 
 And thou tread'st the thorny road. 
 His right hand shall still defend thee, 
 Soon hell bring thee home to God ; 
 
 ^Therefore praise him, 
 Praise the great Redeemer's name. 
 
 151. JOY OF THE DIVINE PRESENCE. (C. M.) 
 
 Weeping may endure for a night ^ hut joy cometh in the. 
 morning. — Psalm xxx. 5. 
 
 1 COME, let us to the Lord our God 
 
 With contrite hearts return ! 
 Our God is gracious, nor will leave 
 The desolate to mourn. 
 
 2 His voice commands the tempest forth, 
 
 And stills the stormy wave ; 
 And though his arm be strong to smite, 
 'Tis also strong to save. 
 
 S Long has the night of sorrow reign'd. 
 The dawn shall bring us light ; 
 God shall appear, and we shall rise 
 With gladness in his sight.

 But though the world may think it sj^r^nge, 
 
 They would not with the world exchange.

 They know it, and they murmur not :

 The state their Master deign d to choose.

 For Jesus is their glorious King :

 153. THE believer's CONFLICT. (l.M.) 
 
 When thou passest through the waters, I will he with 
 thee. — Isaiah xliii. 2. 
 
 1 THE billows swell, the winds are high. 
 Clouds overcast my wint'ry sky : . 
 Out of the depths to Thee I call ; 
 
 My fears are great, my strength is small. 
 
 2 O Lord, the pilot's part perform, 
 
 And guide and guard me thro' the storm ! 
 Defend me from each threat'ning ill ; 
 Control the waves ; say, " Peace ! be still !" 
 
 3 Amidst the raging of the sea 
 
 My soul still hangs her hope on Thee ; 
 Thy constant love, thy faithful care, 
 Is all ^hat saves me from despair. 
 
 4 Dangers of every shape and name 
 Attend the followers of the Lamb, 
 Who leave the world's deceitful shore, 
 And leave it to return no more.

 My (Saviour through the floods I seek : 
 Let neither winds nor stormy main 
 Force back my shatter'd bark again !

 Whom the Lord loveth, he clmsteneth. — Heb. xii. 6.

 Not to live without the cross. 
 But the Saviour's power to know. 
 
 Sanctifying every loss. 
 Trials must and will befal ; 
 
 But with humble faith to see 
 Love inscrib'd upon them all, 
 
 This is happiness to mc.

 HYMN 155. 
 
 God, in Israel, sows the seeds 
 
 Of affliction, pain, and toil ; 
 These spring up, and choke the weeds 
 
 Which would else o'erspread the soil. 
 Trials make the promise sweet ; 
 
 Trials give new life to prayer ; 
 Trials bring me to his feet ; — 
 
 Lay me low, and keep me there 1 
 
 Did I meet no trials here. 
 
 No correction by the way. 
 Might I not, with reason fear 
 
 I should prove a cast-away ? 
 Others may escape the rod, 
 
 Sunk in earthly, vain delight ; 
 But the true-born child of G od 
 
 Must not, would not, if he might.

 THE REFUGE IN TROUBLE. (C.M.) 
 
 Where is God my Maker, tvho giveth songs in the 
 night? — Job xxxv. 10. 
 
 1 O THOU who dry'st the mourner's tear, 
 
 How dark this world would be. 
 If, when deceiv'd and wounded here, 
 We could not fly to thee ! 
 
 2 But thou wilt heal that broken heart. 
 
 Which, like the plants that throw 
 Their fragrance from the wounded part, 
 Breathes sweetness out of woe. 
 
 3 Then sorrow, touch 'd by thee, grows bright 
 
 With more than rapture's ray ; 
 As darkness shews us worlds of light 
 We never saw by day.

 HOPE IN TROUBLE. 
 To die is gain. — Phil. i. 21 . 
 
 1 WHEN musing sorrow weeps the past, 
 
 And mourns the present pain, 
 How sweet to think of peace at last, 
 And feel that death is gain ! 
 
 2 'Tis not that murm'ring thoughts arise, 
 
 And dread a Father's will ; 
 'Tis not that meek submission flies. 
 And would not suifer still ; 
 
 3 It is, that heaven-born faith surveys 
 
 The paths to realms of light. 
 And longs her eagle plumes to raise. 
 And lose herself in sight. 
 
 4 It is, that hope with ardour glows 
 
 To see Him face to face. 
 Whose dying love no language knows 
 Sufficient art to trace. 
 
 5 O let me wing my hallow'd flight 
 
 From earth-born woe and care. 
 And soar beyond these clouds of night, 
 My Saviour's bliss to share !

 DEATH OF A BELIEVER. 
 
 (cm.) 
 
 Precious in the eyes of the Lord is the death of his 
 saints. — Ps. cxvi. 16. 
 
 IN vain our fancy strives to paint 
 
 The moment after death. 
 The glories that surround the saint 
 
 When he resigns his breath. 
 
 One gentle sigh his fetters breaks ; 
 
 We scarce can say, " He's gone," 
 Before the willing spirit takes 
 
 Her mansion near the throne. 
 
 Faith strives, but all its efforts fail 
 To trace her heavenward flight ; 
 
 No eye can pierce within the veil 
 Which hides that world of light.
