Psalm 88:10

Psalms of David in Metre 1650 (Scottish Psalter)

Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? shall they rise, and thee bless?

See the chapter Copy

Because those that deceased are Of thee shall no remembrance have; And who is he that will to thee Give praises lying in the grave?

What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to pit? Shall unto thee the dust give praise? thy truth declare shall it?

I shall not die, but live, and shall the works of God discover.

The dead, nor who to silence go, God's praise do not record.

Sith unto thee I daily cry, be merciful to me.

My hands to thee I stretch; my soul thirsts, as dry land, for thee.
