Psalm 32:1-6 ( Tune: Amazing Grace) Words: The Book of Psalms for Singing, 32A Music: Amazing Grace, New Britain Arrangement: Chris Reeves
1. O bless - ed is the man to whom has free - ly par-doned been all the trans-gres-sions he has done, and cov - ered is his sin.
2. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord im- put - eth not his sin, and in whose spir - it is no guile, nor fraud is found there-in.
3. When I from speak-ing had re-frained and si - lent was my tongue, my bones were wax -ing old be - cause I cried out all day long.
4. Be-cause up - on me day and night Thy hand did heav - y lie; so that my mois- ture had been turned to sum-mer’s drought there-by.
5. I there - up - on have un – to Thee ac- know-ledged all my sin, and like - wise my i- ni - qui - ty I have not hid with - in.
6. “I to Je - ho - vah will con - fess my tres- pass - es,” said I; and of my sin Thou didst for - give all the i - ni - qui - ty.
7. Be -cause of this shall ev - ery saint his prayer di - rect to Thee; in such a time he shall Thee seek as found Thou may-est be.
8. Yea, when the floods of wa - ters great are swell-ing to the brim, they shall not o - ver- whelm his soul nor once come near to him.
