PSALM 65
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1Praise waits for thee in Sion, Lord:
to thee vows paid shall be.
2O thou that hearer art of pray'r,
all flesh shall come to thee.
3Iniquities, I must confess,
prevail against me do:
But as for our transgressions,
them purge away shalt thou.
4Bless'd is the man whom thou dost chuse,
and mak'st approach to thee,
That he within thy courts, O Lord,
may still a dweller be:
We surely shall be satisfy'd
with thy abundant grace,
And with the goodness of thy house,
ev'n of thy holy place.
5O God of our salvation,
thou, in thy righteousness,
By fearful works unto our pray'rs
thine answer dost express:
Therefore the ends of all the earth,
and those afar that be
Upon the sea, their confidence,
O Lord, will place in thee.
6Who, being girt with pow'r, sets fast
by his great strength the hills.
7Who noise of seas, noise of their waves,
and people's tumult, stills.
8Those in the utmost parts that dwell
are at thy signs afraid:
Th' outgoings of the morn and ev'n
by thee are joyful made.
9The earth thou visit'st, wat'ring it;
thou mak'st it rich to grow
With God's full flood; thou corn prepar'st,
when thou provid'st it so.
10Her rigs thou wat'rest plenteously,
her furrows settelest:
With show'rs thou dost her mollify,
her spring by thee is blest.
11So thou the year most lib'rally
dost with thy goodness crown;
And all thy paths abundantly
on us drop fatness down.
12They drop upon the pastures wide,
that do in deserts lie;
The little hills on ev'ry side
rejoice right pleasantly.
13With flocks the pastures clothed be,
the vales with corn are clad;
And now they shout and sing to thee,
for thou hast made them glad.

Psalms 65
65
For the Music Director. A Psalm of David. A Song.
1Praise awaits You, O God, in Zion;
and to You a vow will be fulfilled.
2#Ps 63:1; 84:2 O You who hears prayer,
to You all flesh will come.
3#Ps 79:10; 80:5 Iniquities are stronger than me;
as for our transgressions, You atone for them.
4#Isa 30:29; Ps 62:8 Blessed is the man You choose and allow to draw near;
he will dwell in Your courts.
We will be satisfied with the goodness of Your house,
even of Your holy temple.
5#Ps 42:11; 43:5 In righteousness You will answer us gloriously,
O God of our salvation,
You, who are the confidence of all the ends of the earth,
and of those who are afar off on the sea;
6#2Sa 17:22; Dt 3:8–9 who established the mountains by His strength,
being clothed with might;
7#Ps 88:7; Jnh 2:3 who stills the noise of the seas,
the noise of their waves,
and the tumult of peoples.
8#Job 35:10; Ps 63:6 Those who dwell in the uttermost parts
are in awe because of Your signs;
You make the going out of the morning and evening rejoice.
9#Ps 38:6; 18:2 You visit the earth, and water it;
You enrich it
with the river of God, which is full of water;
You prepare their grain,
for thus You have established it.
10#Ps 42:3; Joel 2:17 You water its furrows abundantly;
You settle its ridges;
You soften it with showers;
You bless its sprouting.
11#Ps 42:5; 43:5 You crown the year with Your goodness,
and Your paths drip abundance.
12They drip on the pastures of the wilderness,
and the hills clothe themselves with rejoicing.
13The pastures are clothed with flocks;
the valleys also are covered with grain;
they shout for joy, they also sing.
