I'll Sing of Mercy and of JusticeWords: Psalm 101, from The Scottish Psalter of 1650 Music: 1 I'll sing of mercy and of justice,
Lord, I'll sing to thee.
With wisdom in a perfect way
shall my behavior be.
O when, in kindness unto me,
wilt thou be pleased to come?
I with a perfect heart will walk
within my house at home.
2 I will endure no wicked thing
before mine eyes to be:
I hate their work that turn aside,
it shall not cleave to me.
A stubborn and a froward heart
shall quite depart from me;
A person giv'n to wickedness
I will not know at all.
3 I'll cut him off that slandereth
his neighbor privily:
The haughty heart I will not bear,
nor him that looketh high.
Upon the faithful of the land
mine eyes shall always be,
With favor shall I look on them,
that they may dwell with me:
4 No man who practices deceit
shall dwell within my house;
And in my presence shall no man
remain who utters lies.
Yea, all the wicked of the land
I early will destroy;
And cut off evil doers from
the city of the Lord.
