Chandos Anthem no. 7: My song shall be alway of the loving kindness

Sonata

Soprano and Chorus

My song shall be alway of the loving kindness

of the Lord; with my mouth will I ever be

shewing thy truth from one generation to

another. The Heav'ns shall praise thy

wond'rous works, and thy truth in the

congregation of the saints.

Tenor

For who is he among the clouds that shall be

compared unto the Lord? And what is he

among the Gods that shall be like unto the Lord?

Soprano, Tenor and Bass

God is very greatly to be feared in the counsel

of the saints, and to be had in reverence of

all that are round about him. O Lord, God of

hosts, who is like unto thee? Thy truth, most

mighty Lord, is on ev'ry side.

Alto and Bass. Duet

The heav'ns are thine, the earth also is thine;

thou has laid the foundation of the round

world.

Chorus

Righteousness and equity are the habitation of thy

seat; mercy and truth shall go before thy face.

Soprano

Blessed is the people, O Lord, that can rejoice

in thee; they shall walk in the light of thy countenance.

Chorus

Thou art the glory of their strength. Alleluja.
