Set to the Irish air ‘Paddy’s Green Shamrock Shore,’ this song captures the lament of the Psalm while adding a drive and energy that brings to light the hope offered at its conclusion. This Psalm typically accompanies reflections on Good Friday, though it is an important accompaniment to any time in which we struggle with a sense of forsakenness.
You can find lyrics, scores/books, mp3s, CDs for My God, My God on the Celtic Psalms webpage (www.celticpsalms.com)
