Text

Lat us worship God. Lat us sing Psaum 100 tae the tune the Auld Hunder.

PSAUM 100
THE AULD HUNDER

Aa folk wha dwall upon the yirth
Sing tae the Lord wi blythesome sang.
Heeze up yer voce, and syne wi mirth
And blytheheid lat the stave ootgang.

Ye ken the lord is God. Himlane
Oot o the mools He did us mak.
A flock o fe He has us ta'en
And for his hirsel us will tak.

O ben then till His yetts wi laud
Intil His fauld wi cheery sang
O sing a sang in praise o God
Ye men o guidwill, steive and strang.

Forbye the Lord oor God is guid
His guidwill isna for ae day.
His truth at aa times sterkly staunds
And sall gae on for aye and aye.


CA TAE PRAYER
LAT AA BE STAUNAN

An God bigna the houss, they fash for
nought wha big at it; an God keepna
the brugh, he waukens for nought wha
keeps waird ontit.
