Psalm of the Week: God of My Salvation/Psalm 88
Manage episode 430408580 series 2909994
A Psalm of abandonment, full of questions without any attempt at resolution, this Psalm presents a heart-rending, honest portrayal of someone in the midst of deep difficulty. Combined with the lamenting tones of the Irish tune ‘Bean Dubh a Ghleanna,’ this song holds a space for the most forsaken experiences of humanity, while continuing to retain a relationship with the God to whom it asks these questions.
You can find lyrics, scores/books, mp3s, CDs for God of My Salvation on the Celtic Psalms webpage (www.celticpsalms.com)
