Psalm | Psalm 70 (with Nick Locke)
Opening Song:
Psalm 70 (O God, Make Haste) by Brian Sauvé
Lyrics:
Make haste, O God
Deliver me
O Lord, make haste
To succor me
Confound them all
And put to shame
The ones who, reckless,
Seek my soul
Let them be turned
Back in disgrace
Who revel in my suffering
Let them be turned
Back in their shame
Who laugh and taunt me in my pain
O God, may those
Who seek be glad
Rejoicing and well pleased in Thee
May they who Thy salvation love
Say evermore, O God, be praised
O God, be praised
God be praised
Quick hasten unto me, O God
Thou art my help, O Lord, my God
Deliverer, do not delay
Do not delay
Passage:
For the choir director. Of David. To bring remembrance.
1 God, hurry to rescue me. LORD, hurry to help me!
2 Let those who seek to kill me be disgraced and confounded; let those who wish me harm be turned back and humiliated.
3 Let those who say, “Aha, aha!” retreat because of their shame.
4 Let all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you; let those who love your salvation continually say, “God is great!”
5 I am oppressed and needy; hurry to me, God. You are my help and my deliverer; LORD, do not delay.
(Psalm 70:1-5 CSB17)
Musical Reflection:
O Lord, Hear My Prayer by Jacques Berthier
Reflection Notes:
Another song from the Taizé community, this one contains a series of pleas: “O Lord, hear my prayer, O Lord, hear my prayer; when I call, answer me.” The repeated notes emphasize the insistence of the sung prayer, while the descending lines indicate a deep, almost despairing desire to connect.
Prayer:
Father, what we know not, teach us; what we have not, give us; what we are not, make us; for the sake of your Son our Savior. Amen.
-Old Anglican Prayer
