Download Ps. 90 Fill Us With Your Love O Lord

Revised Grail Psalter Text:

R. Fill us with your love, O Lord, and we will sing for joy!

Teach us to number our days,
     that we may gain wisdom of heart.
Turn back, O LORD! How long?
     Show pity to your servants.

At dawn, fill us with your merciful love;
     we shall exult and rejoice all our days.
Give us joy for the days of our affliction,
     for the years when we looked upon evil.

Let your deed be seen by your servants,

Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us;
     give success to the work of our hands.
     O give success to the work of our hands.

Download Ps. 126 The Lord Has Done Great Things for Us

Revised Grail Psalter Text:

R. The Lord has done great things for us; we are filled with joy.

When the LORD brought back the exiles of Sion,
     we thought we were dreaming.
Then was our mouth filled with laughter;
     on our tongues, songs of joy.

Then the nations themselves said, “What great deeds
     the LORD worked for them!”
What great deeds the LORD worked for us!
     Indeed, we were glad.

Bring back our exiles, O LORD,
     as streams in the south.
Those who are sowing in tears
     will sing when they reap.

They go out, they go out, full of tears,
     bearing seed for the sowing;
they come back, they come back with a song,
     bearing their sheaves.

R. The Lord upholds my life.

O God, save me by your name;

O God, hear my prayer;
     give ear to the words of my mouth.

For the proud have risen against me,
     and the ruthless seek my life.
     They have no regard for God.

See, I have God for my help.
     The Lord sustains my soul.
I will sacrifice to you with willing heart,
     and praise your name, for it is good.
