Product Description
This
psalm setting, appropriate for weddings (and on the USCCB approved list of
psalms for Catholic weddings) is gentle and song-like in its arrangement for
voice and piano. The melody features a lyrical shape for the vocalist while
staying within a comfortable range. The accompaniment is simple yet offers bits
of countermelody in harmony with the vocal line.
(The alternate response, "Blessed are those
who fear the Lord" is also available on this site under the publisher
"Christy L'Esperance.")
The text is Psalm 128: 1-2, 3, 4-5:
R. See how the Lord blesses those who fear him.
Blessed
are all who fear the Lord,
and walk in his ways!
By the labor of your hands you shall eat.
You will be blessed and prosper.
R. See how the Lord blesses those who fear him.
Your
wife like a fruitful vine
in the heart of your house;
Your children like shoots of the olive.
around your table.
R. See how the Lord blesses those who fear him.
Indeed
thus shall be blessed
the man who fears the Lord.
May the Lord bless you from Zion:
all the days of your life!
May you see your childrens children.
R. See how the Lord blesses those who fear him.
