Psalm 115
8,6,8,6

^1Not unto us, Lord, not to us,

but do thou glory take

Unto thy name, ev'n for thy truth,

and for thy mercy's sake.

^2O wherefore should the heathen say,

Where is their God now gone?

^3But our God in the heavens is,

what pleas'd him he hath done.

^4Their idols silver are and gold,

work of men's hands they be.

^5Mouths have they, but they do not speak;

and eyes, but do not see;

^6Ears have they, but they do not hear;

noses, but savour not;

^7Hands, feet, but handle not, nor walk;

nor speak they through their throat.

^8Like them their makers are, and all

on them their trust that build.

^9O Isr'el, trust thou in the Lord,

he is their help and shield.

^10O Aaron's house, trust in the Lord,

their help and shield is he.

^11Ye that fear God, trust in the Lord,

their help and shield he'll be.

^12The Lord of us hath mindful been,

and he will bless us still:

He will the house of Isr'el bless,

bless Aaron's house he will.

^13Both small and great, that fear the Lord,

he will them surely bless.

^14The Lord will you, you and your seed,

aye more and more increase.

^15O blessed are ye of the Lord,

who made the earth and heav'n.

^16The heav'n, ev'n heav'ns, are God's, but he

earth to men's sons hath giv'n.

^17The dead, nor who to silence go,

God's praise do not record.

^18But henceforth we for ever will

bless God. Praise ye the Lord.
