PSALM 19. First Part. S.M.
The book of nature and scripture. (cont.)

2	The darkness and the light    Still keep their course the same; While night to day, and day to night,    Divinely teach his name.
3	In ev'ry different land    Their gen'ral voice is known: They shew the wonders of his hand,    And orders of his throne.
4	Ye Western lands rejoice,    Here he reveals his word: We are not left to nature's voice    To bid us know the Lord.
5	His statutes and commands    Are set before our eyes; He puts his gospel in our hands,    Where our salvation lies.
6	His laws are just and pure,    His truth without deceit; His promises for ever sure,    And his rewards are great.
7	Not honey to the taste    Affords so much delight; Nor gold that has the furnace pass'd    So much allures the sight.
8	While of thy works I sing,    Thy glory to proclaim; Accept the praise, my God, my King,    In my Redeemer's name.

PSALM 19. Second Part. S.M.
The word of God most excellent.

1	BEHOLD! the morning sun    Begins his glorious way; His beams thro' all the nations run.    And life and light convey.

PSALM 19. Second Part. S.M.
The word of God most excellent. (cont.)

2	But where the gospel comes,    It spreads diviner light; It calls dead sinners from their tombs,    And gives the blind their sight.
3	How perfect is thy word!    And all thy judgments just: For ever sure thy promise, Lord;    And men securely trust.
4	My gracious God, how plain    Are thy directions giv'n! Oh may I never read in vain,    But find the path to heav'n!
5	I hear thy word with love,    And I would fain obey: Send thy good Spirit from above.    To guide me, lest I stray.
6	O, who can ever find    The errors of his ways! Yet with a bold presumptuous mind,    I would not dare transgress.
7	Warn me of ev'ry sin;    Forgive my secret faults; And cleanse this guilty soul of mine,    Whose crimes exceed my thoughts.
8	While with my heart and tongue    I spread thy praise abroad; Accept the worship and the song,    My Saviour and my God.

PSALM 19. Third Part. L.M.
The book of nature and scripture compared.

1	THE heav'ns declare thy glory, Lord,    In ev'ry star thy wisdom shines; But when our eyes behold thy word,    We read thy name in fairer lines.
