and their faces are never covered with shame.
Psalm 34:5
Lectio, 28 February 2012
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.
