Psalm 36: The wicked man's transgression

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 36 First Line: The wicked man's transgression Lyrics: 1The wicked man’s transgression within my heart thus says, Undoubtedly the fear of God is not before his eyes. 2Because himself he flattereth in his own blinded eye, Until the hatefulness be found of his iniquity. 3Words from his mouth proceeding are, fraud and iniquity: He to be wise, and to do good, hath left off utterly. 4He mischief, lying on his bed, most cunningly doth plot: He sets himself in ways not good, ill he abhorreth not. 5Thy mercy, Lord, is in the heav’ns; thy truth doth reach the clouds: 6Thy justice is like mountains great; thy judgments deep as floods: Lord, thou preservest man and beast. 7How precious is thy grace! Therefore in shadow of thy wings men’s sons their trust shall place. 8They with the fatness of thy house shall be well satisfy’d; From rivers of thy pleasures thou wilt drink to them provide. 9Because of life the fountain pure remains alone with thee; And in that purest light of thine we clearly light shall see. 10Thy loving-kindness unto them continue that thee know; And still on men upright in heart thy righteousness bestow. 11Let not the foot of cruel pride come, and against me stand; And let me not removed be, Lord, by the wicked’s hand. 12There fallen are they, and ruined, that work iniquities: Cast down they are, and never shall be able to arise.

A Psalm of David, the Servant of the LORD

Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 36 First Line: The trespass of the wicked man Lyrics: 1 The trespass of the wicked man so plain and open lies; My heart concludes, the fear of GOD is not before his eyes. 2 For in his own deceitful view self-flatteries abound; Till his iniquity breaks out, and odious is found. 2 The words that issue from his mouth, are vain and guileful too; He quite hath ceased to be wise, and any good to do. 4 Yea, when he lies upon his bed, he mischief meditates; He set himself in no good way, nor any evil hates. [2 Part] 5 Thy mercy O JEHOVAH is within the heav'ns on high; thy faithfulness does also reach above the cloudy sky. 6 Like mountains great* thy righteousness! thy judgments a great deep! Both man and beast,Thou kindly LORD dost condescend to keep. 7 O GOD, thy loving-kindness is of wondrous excellence: Therefore in shadow of thy wings, men's sons put confidence. 8 Ev'n of the fatness of thy house, they to the full shall take; And of the stream of thy delights, to drink Thou wilt them make. 9 Because the flowing spring of life, ever abides in thee; And in thy light, the light of grace and glory we shall see. 10 O stretch thy loving-kindness forth to all who Thee do know; And to all those of upright heart thy righteousness still show. 11 I suffer not the foot of pride to make approach to me; Nor by the hand of wicked men let me removed be. 12 Lo There they all are fallen down, who work iniquities; Down are they cast, and never shall be able to arise.

Dixit injustus

Author: J. H. Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 36 First Line: The wicked with his works unjust Lyrics: 1 The wicked with his works unjust, doth thus perswade his heart: That of the Lord he hath no trust his feare is set apart. 2 Yet doth he joy in his estate, to walk as he began: So long till he deserve the hate of God and eke of man. 3 His words are wicked, vile, and naught, his tongue no truth doth tell: Yet at no hand will he be taught which way he may do well. 4 When he should sleep, then doth he muse his mischiefs to fulfill: No wicked waies doth he refuse, nor nothing that is ill. 5 But Lord thy goodnesse doth ascend above the heavens hie, So doth thy truth it selfe extend unto the cloudie skir. 6 Much more than hils both high and steep, thy justice is exprest: Thy judgments like the seas most deep, thou sav'st both man and beast. 7 Thy mercy is above all things, O God, it doth excell: In trust whereof as in thy wings, the sonnes of men shall dwell. 8 Within thy house they shall be fed, with plenty at their will: Of all delights they shall be sped, and take thereof their fill. 9 For why? the well of life so pure doth ever flow from thee: And in thy light we are full sure the lasting light to see. 10 From such as thee desire to know let not thy grace depart: Thy righteousnesse declare and shew to men of upright heart. 11 Let not the proud on me prevaile, O Lord, of thy good grace: Nor let the wicked me assaile, to throw me out of place. 12 But they in their device shall fall, that wicked works maintaine: They shall be overthrown withall, and never rise againe.
