Psalm 65, and Psalm 69... to music?

Psalm 65:
Lord, You who hear our prayers
In You will men confide
When we were overwhelmed by sins
Forgiveness You supplied,
And praise awaits You!

You answer us with power-
With power and awesome deeds!
Thou Savior, hope of all the earth
Who stilled the roaring seas,
All praise awaits You!

You call forth songs of joy
Abundant harvests bring!
The hills are clothed with gladness, and
They shout for joy and sing!
And praise awaits You.


Psalm 69:
Save me, O God,
For the waters have come-
The waters have come to my neck and I sink
In depths with no footing to rescue me from
The rage of the floods, the rage of the floods
And the deep waters pulling.

My guilt, and my folly are plainly in view
My wandering heart is before You.

Save me, O God,
For the waters have come
The waters have come to my neck and I sink
In depths with no footing to rescue me from
The rage of the floods, the rage of the floods
And the deep waters pulling.

And zeal for Your house, yes zeal for Your house will consume me.
And the insults of those who insult You will all rest upon me.

I pray to you Lord
In the time of Your favor;
In your great love,
O merciful Savior...

Save me, O God,
For the waters have come
The waters have come to my neck and I sink
In depths with no footing to rescue me from
The rage of the floods, the rage of the floods
And the deep waters pulling.
