The Psalter of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer — in the classic Coverdale translation.
For
more than four centuries, the Coverdale Psalms have shaped the prayer,
worship, and spiritual imagination of the Anglican tradition. Preserved
in the 1662 edition of the Book of Common Prayer, this translation is
cherished for its dignity, rhythm, and devotional beauty.
Unlike
later biblical revisions, the Prayer Book Psalter retains the musical
cadences and poetic phrasing that have echoed through cathedrals, parish
churches, and daily offices across the English-speaking world. Its
language is both elevated and intimate — crafted not merely for reading,
but for praying.
This edition presents the complete
Psalter as appointed in the 1662 Prayer Book, faithfully preserving the
traditional text in a clear and readable format.
Suitable for:
-Daily Morning and Evening Prayer
-Choral and liturgical use
-Personal devotion
-Students of Anglican liturgy
-Lovers of classic sacred English prose
A timeless companion for prayer — and a living witness to the devotional heritage of Anglican Christianity.
