Psalm 145:18

Psalms of David in Metre 1650 (Scottish Psalter)

God's near to all that call on him, in truth that on him call.

See the chapter Copy

The Lord is ever nigh to them that be of broken sp'rit; To them he safety doth afford that are in heart contrite.

Blessed are they who to observe his statutes are inclin'd; And who do seek the living God with their whole heart and mind.

Lord, hear the right, attend my cry, unto my pray'r give heed, That doth not in hypocrisy from feigned lips proceed.

God in the midst of her doth dwell; nothing shall her remove: The Lord to her an helper will, and that right early, prove.

God is our refuge and our strength, in straits a present aid;

But thou art near, Lord; most firm truth all thy commandments are.
