Out of the depths Psalm 130 Scottish Psalter 1650

[@vlw4165]

With so much of today's penchant for Christian praise music, the meat of scriptures set to music is a refreshing balm to my soul. Give me more of the Word, and less singing of my own feelings!

[@ulsterscotprotestant8431]

No need for the instrumental music - that belonged to the childhood of the church - all swept away with the veil of the temple being ripped in twain.

[@larkinthesky]

I come from a conservative church in Switzerland and we always sing the old hymns. I am on an exchange in Aberdeen right now studying English Literature and Gaelic. I was so afraid I wouldn't find any church with a bit more traditional music and not the modern stuff, one normally finds nowadays. I was so pleasantly surprised to find a church still singing the old Psalms a capella which is so beautiful and helps you concenrate on the lyrics so much more.

I am just now discovering psalm singing, and I am loving it. Wish I had discovered it long ago. Great way to learn and hide God's Word within your heart.

[@TurrettiniPizza]

Look up the 1650 Split Leaf Psalter app

[@BusDriver91980]

I love the Psalter tunes. You can find the words here: www.prca.org/resources/worship-devotional/psalter

[@optimatus]

Purely Presbyterian Are the notes in that app too? I would like to sing these psalms with my Dutch choir.

[@remoorekable]

Purely Presbyterian I just downloaded it! Thank you!

[@ulsterscotprotestant8431]

And you don't need an organ either - something that belonged to the childhood of the church. Hebrews 13:15-17 King James Version (KJV) 15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.

[@euniceoh1193]

Today I was reading Psalm 130. The more I meditated on this psalm, I was deeply touched the words. " In his word I hope." I was surprised when I found this hynm. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful song.

[@johnquik]

"Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity..." Titus 2:13

[@remoorekable]

How have I never been told of psalm singing before? Oh my heart. 😭

[@FUNANDCOMEDY101]

What an angelic resonance!

[@larkinthesky]

I am actually going to Lewis and Harris with a friend of mine during the Easter vacation. I am quite excited about, having heard so much about the beauty of the place.

[@FUNANDCOMEDY101]

Lord I am nothing without you my darling father

[@RobertSmith-oo9ke]

This sounds like a recording called The Psalms of Scotland by the Scottish Philharmonia Singers. The recording is no longer available to purchase and has now been taken off Spotify as well. It is an excellent album and a singing lesson for many.

[@hrender1]

It's on Apple Music: music.apple.com/us/album/psalms-of-scotland-with-verse-selection/1295898208

[@johnsimpson172]

Wonderful . Words of life everlasting.

Oh I Love this!!!🎚️🎚️🎚️🎚️🎚️🎚️🎚️

[@choir203]

that was lovely, i sing in my local roman catholic church choir and that would be a beautifull setting for psalm 130 on the appointed day. awesome thank you so much for posting

[@TurrettiniPizza]

The Roman Catholic Church is Satanic.

[@choir203]

1Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. 3And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? 4Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? Matthew : 7:1.4

[@corneliapaliama1050]

So beautiful❤️

[@irenekretzmann877]

A beautiful song of scripture. So glad to have found it

[@MrAnthonieify]

Only God the Hohour! Soli Deo Gloria!! Beautiful!! Thanks for sharing... Ton

[@nanciekoo]

Thanks, John. This is one of my favourite Psalms. Thank God for His encouraging Words to us.

[@eemo1873]

Thank you for posting this. I often wonder why we have allowed our tradition to be written out of the church they way it has. Beautiful!!

[@judyjowers]

Thank you for posting this Psalm. It is beautiful.

[@SadronAphaderuiondur]

One of my favourite Psalms ever. This way sounds even more bautiful.

[@Uistblues]

If you enjoy tradional music and are studying gaelic then you should take a trip to the Outer Hebrides. Alot of the Churches there still sing the old fashion way of singing in Gaelic(giving out the line)

[@SamTexan91]

Thank you! I'm glad to know that there are others out there that think like me. That's why I'm always commenting on other people's sensible comments.

[@Mumzie49]

Thankyou for sharing. A soothing video with beautiful images. GOD bless you.

[@SeaTeamCommanderKrik]

Beautiful singing. Very nice video, thank you for posting it

MAGNIFICO SINTO A PRESENCIA DE JEOVÁ TRINO. BELO CÂNTICO

[@SamTexan91]

Right - it had showed up in the wrong place so I deleted it. It's up again now. I also wrote this, which may appear further down. Starting at 1:58 and ending at 2:36 is the most beautiful rendition of any simple harmonization I've ever heard. Truly splendid work. It's good to experiment with the harmonizations...such as quarter notes and slurs etc but one must do it without spoiling it with modernity. For example - 2:02 to 2:05 is a beautiful example, in the alto section, if I'm not mistaking.

[@jayems332]

Magnificent. Thankyou.

[@Moireach91]

@larkinthesky Good stuff, glad you enjoyed it!

[@SamTexan91]

You're right on. Thank you.

[@uncleroy521]

Outstanding

[@SamTexan91]

I'm actually just back from a two month stay there. The singing was in the native language, Gaelic, but it was beautiful. And the beaches on Harris are beautiful!

[@Kevinrobert123]

awesome

[@Rob_dad]

So imporant

[@SamTexan91]

Yesss!

[@hilarioushen4164]

This beautiful psalm speaks of the lost sinner crying unto all mighty God out of the depths of his sinful nature which covers his soul like the ocean, and where forgiveness can be found in God alone through Jesus Christ or Lord, for salvation is of God; , for as it is taught in the scriptures, for by GRACE are ye saved through faith and that not of yourself it is the gift of God, NOT of WORKS lest any man should boast. For Christ being the soul head of his church, and the Holy Spirit who being the vicar of Christ. scripture teaches; there is NONE righteous no not one, for ALL have sinned and come short of the glory of GOD. So these infallible words of God remind us that no pope or priest or any man can save the soul but Christ alone who being the only mediator between GOD and men. As Christ cried out on the cross, IT iS FINISHED! The work of redemption that the father had sent him into the world to do was complete and never to be repeated, praise ye the Lord. Amen.🙏🏻

[@remoorekable]

stephen mcauley Amen!!

[@WaldoWassik]

Amen

[@dorothygremillion923]

Would it be possible for me to receive a copy of this harmonization of Martyrdom? It's so lovely and I would like for my church choir to sing it.

[@louisehogg8472]

It's the faux bourdon setting I think? Probably in the 1929 Revised Hymnary And Psalms Of David. (The blue hymnbook). Often found in secondhand bookshops.

[@Moireach91]

@larkinthesky The Free Church?

[@larkinthesky]

@Moireach91 Yeah, exactly.

[@Moireach91]

Where is the recording from?

[@34Packardphaeton]

"Scottish Philharmonic Singers", directed by Ian McCrorie........ out-of-print, sadly.

[@airighdrishaig]

Yes great I always think it's a shame when Psalm 130 is sung to anything other than "Martyrdom". It brings back memories of sailing on the Loch Seaforth from Stornoway to Kyle and the dawn coming up.

[@AdamWhitescarver1981]

What album is this from? Who sings it and how do I find it?

[@AdamWhitescarver1981]

Who is the artist? How can I find this recording?

[@34Packardphaeton]

+Adam Whitescarver I bought a CD from R C Sproul's "Ligonier Ministries" which is of a Scottish choir singing psalms. Though I have misplaced my copy, I am very sure that this recording is from this said worthy CD.

[@jameslong5871]

Which is this tune?

[@rockyebener514]

martyrdom

[@lenellemoerdyk]

The success of the gospel and the Christian message does not depend on any human or human office. The representative of Christ on earth is the Holy Spirit. See John 14-16. By assuming the place of Christ on earth the pope denies the work of the Spirit. By assuming the title "holy father" he denies the work of The Father, and by assuming the power to forgive sins he denies the work of Christ. The pope is therefore not Christian but anti-Christian. Sola-Christus!

[@romangeorge6555]

IanLenelle Macleod God bless you, I’m not defending the pope, I’m not even catholic I’m Orthodox Christian God gave the power of forgiveness of sins to the church before he was ascended into heaven (If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you withhold forgiveness from any, it is withheld.”) John 20-23

[@hilarioushen4164]

Roman George How can a sinner forgive the sins of another sinner.
