The Presence of the LORD
(Acts 2:14–36)

1Preserue me (o God) for in the do I trust.

2I haue sayde vnto ye LORDE: thou art my God, my goodes are nothinge vnto the.

3All my delyte is vpon the sanctes that are in the earth, and vpon soch like.

4But they yt runne after another, shall haue greate trouble. Their drynkofferynges of bloude wil not I offre, nether make mencion of their name in my mouth.

5The LORDE himself is my good and my porcion, thou manteynest my enheritauce.

6The lott is fallen vnto me in a fayre grounde, yee I haue a goodly heretage.

7I wil thanke the LORDE for geuynge me warnynge: my reynes also haue chastened me in the night season.

8Afore honde sawe I God allwayes before me, for he is on my right honde, that I shulde not be moued.

9Therfore dyd my hert reioyce, & my tunge was glad, my flesh also shall rest in hope.

10For why? thou shalt not leaue my soule in hell, nether shalt thou suffre thy saynte to se corrupcion.

11Thou hast shewed me the wayes off life: thou shalt make me full of ioye wt thy countenaunce. At thy right hande there is pleasure and ioye for euermore.
