The Scottish Metrical Psalter - 1650 Psalms of David in Metre

The Book of Psalms - Translated into Verse for Singing and Published as "The Psalm of David in Metre"

Title page reads: "The Psalms of David in Metre.  Translated and diligently compared with The Original Text and Former Translations, More plain, smooth, and agreeable to the text than any heretofore.  Allowed by the Authority of the General Assembly of the Kirk of Scotland, and appointed to be sung in Congregations and Families."

The Book of Psalms is the "hymnbook" of Jesus and the Apostles, the spiritual songs of Martyrs and Reformers.  If you are looking for a Christian song-book for your family, or for your congregation, this is where you will find solid blessing, and an undoubted collection of praises pleasing to the Lord.

This particular translation of the Psalms was the product of years of effort by some of the most capable theologians and ministers of England and Scotland acting in cooperation with one another under the official direction of the Church.

Customers are also encouraged to acquire a copy of Hugh Brown's Discourses on Scripture Psalmody and Instrumental Music.  These serve well to show the duty of all Christians to sing the Psalms --- all the Psalms --- and to set aside every alternative.
