Psalm 89:1

Lectio, 19 March 2012 :: Solemnity of St. Joseph

Today’s Psalm is Psalm 34 - “The Lord hears the cry of the poor”. Whenever I read or hear this Psalm, I think of the Kendzia setting of Lamb of God/Taste and See, which we often sing at Communion at my church. I hope you enjoy it and find the same hope and inspiration I do when I sing it.

Taste and see the goodness of the Lord; O taste and see the goodness of the Lord.

I will bless the Lord at all times,
his praise ever in my mouth.
Let my soul glory in the Lord.

Let the lowly hear and be glad,
Let us glorify his name.
Together let us praise God’s name.

Glorify the Lord with me,
together let us praise his name.
From my fears God set me free.

Look to the Lord and shine in the light,
Let your faces not be ashamed.
The Lord hears the cry of the poor.
Blessed be the Lord.

Remember me, God, when you show favor to your people.
Help me when you deliver them, that I may enjoy the prosperity of your chosen ones,
share the joy of your nation,
and join with you own people in giving praise.

Psalm 106:4-5

Lectio, 9 February 2012

He heals the brokenhearted
and binds up their wounds.
He tells the number of the stars;
he calls each by name.

Psalm 147:3-4
