Psalm of the Week: May We Rise/Psalm 148, 149, 150

Journeying the Psalms Podcast #44

This song evokes praise with all our heart, soul and body ~ with all of creation, with all instruments, with all aspects of who we are. Indeed, praise includes what brings us pleasure, joy and delight ~ something we don’t often sing about in hymns, and yet which are such an important aspect of living as fully and vibrantly as God intends. Set to the Scottish tune with Irish words, this paraphrase maintains some of the original language in the refrain of the song ‘Happy are We All Together.’

Continue your reflections with the accompanying journal, which includes further questions for reflection and some invitations to prayer and practice.
