Confitebor tibi. Ps.138.N.

David praiseth the goodness of God toward him, for which, even foreign Princes shall praise the Lord together with him. And he is assured to have like comfort of God hereafter, as heretofore.

Sing this as the 137 Psalm.

Thee will I praise with my whole heart,
my Lord my God always:
Even in the presence of the Gods
I will advance thy praise,
 
2 Towards thy holy Temple I
will look, and worship thee:
And praised in my thankful mouth,
thy holy name shall be.
 
3 Even for thy loving kindness’ sake,
and for thy truth withal
For thou thy name hast by thy word,
advanced over all.
 
4 When I did call thou heardest me,
and thou hast made also
The power of increased strength
within my soul to grow.
 
5 Yea, all the Kings on earth they shall
give praise to thee, O Lord:
For they of thy most holy mouth
have heard the mighty word.
 
6 They of the ways of God the Lord
in singing shall entreat:
Because the glory of the Lord
it is exceeding great.
 
7 The Lord is high and yet he doth
behold the lowly spirit:
But he condemning knows afar
the proud and lofty wight.
 
8 Although in midst of trouble I
do walk, yet shall I stand:
Renewed by thee, O my Lord,
thou wilt stretch forth thy hand.
 
9 Upon the wrath of all my foes,
and saved shall I be:
By thy right hand the Lord God will
perform his work to me.
 
10 Thy mercies Lord endures for aye,
Lord do me not forsake:
Forsake me not that am the work
which thine own hand did make.
