Psalms 4-6, 9-10
We all know that David wrote a lot of psalms. We have already read those that are tied to specific events in David’s life. Now for the next several days, we get to read the rest of them, with just a couple of peeks back into Chronicles. So settle into the Psalms for the next several days. It may seem like we are racing through them, so you may want to schedule some extra time to be able to sit with each one individually. Take a look at last year’s comments and think about what you yourself might say. And then let the rest of us know.
For the needy shall not always be forgotten,
Psalm 9:18
and the hope of the poor shall not perish forever.
Officiant Let not the needy, O Lord, be forgotten;
2019 Book of Common Prayer, pp. 22,48
People Nor the hope of the poor be taken away.
Ever wonder where the BCP gets its prayers?
