Group wall: Learners of Psalms§↻

A verse I'm working on at the moment, which I love: I sought the Lord and He answered me, and delivered me from all my fears. Psalm 34:4, NASB.

Amen. Psalm 23.

Yes and 23 He is with us in our darkest days

amen.

Psalm 91 -- I'd like to put in a mention of Psalm 91 :) If we believe in the Lord, we can have peace of mind and security, that He will protect us from evil.

I love that song too! So powerful to sing the scriptures as worship to the Lord

Since I already posted a lot, I thought it would be polite to also join the group. I'll try to be less talkative ... sometimes I rattle on ;)

That's the same song indeed :) But, we sang it in church back in 1973 (the year I became a Christian) and also in the years following ....

It was written by Michael W Smith in 1981.
Is that the song, Joosep?

amen :) I have an experience in the past, too, of singing a chorus partially based on the first verse of Psalm 8. It went, "O Lord our Lord how majestic is Your Name in all the earth! (repeat, and then) O Lord, we praise Your Name / O Lord, we magnify Your Name / Prince of Peace, Mighty God, / O Lord God Almighty!" I can still hear the melody in my mind, though it was about 46 years ago.

Thanks for sharing this. The first one I learnt was Psalm 8 in the niv UK version. I started a "sing the Bible" choir and this was one of the songs. Since learnscripture.net I have done the ESV . Learning scriptures is so great

There are many of course but what comes to my mind first is Psalm 32. A long time ago, this Psalm meant a lot to me because of Verse 8. It comforted me greatly at the time to think that God promises His guidance to me (to all of us who believe).

More recently, as I've been studying Romans, Verses 1 and 2 of Psalm 32 have taken on new meaning to me. Verses 1-2 are quoted by Paul as he built his case in his letter to the Romans, in Romans 4:6-8. Of course, one could go on and on and on, when speaking of the Psalms ...
