Price range: $0.00 through $5.00 Select options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product pagehttps://musicblog.gregscheer.com/ps107-thanks_be_to_god.mp3
David Diephouse’s metrical setting of Psalm 107 is paired with a guitar-friendly tune that supports the stress/salvation pattern of the text with a major/minor harmonic sequence. The above MP3 is the Choral Scholars singing the piano accompaniment version. Below is the COS Guitarchestra in a rendition that would be perfect if there were ever an album The Eagles Sing the Psalms. This song also appears in Psalms for All Seasons, 107D.

Psalm 108: O God, My Heart Is Ready
https://musicblog.gregscheer.com/wp-content/uploads/psalm_108-o_god_my_heart_is_ready_1.mp3
Kate Bluett has a knack for writing hymns that are fresh and insightful, yet draw a worshiper’s attention to the subject rather than the words. Her rendering of Psalm 108 captures the hope and confidence of this morning prayer perfectly. The music matches her words with a melody that leaps and dives like a brisk ride through a hilly landscape at sunrise.

Psalm 11: Our God Is Still on the Throne
https://musicblog.gregscheer.com/wp-content/uploads/psalm_011-our_god_is_still_on_the_throne.mp3
Though a few millennia may obscure some of Psalm 11’s meaning, the theme is still relevant today: life can be scary, and sometimes even what seems reliable can crumble beneath us. Still, God is in control and watches over us. This song recasts Psalm 11’s timeless message in modern language and heartfelt Gospel-style music style.

Psalm 113: From the Rising of the Sun
https://musicblog.gregscheer.com/scheer_psalm_113-from_the_rising.mp3
The first half of Psalm 113 is lots of beautiful creation imagery, but the second half contains some things that don’t fit as neatly into a modern worship song: God raises the needy from the garbage dump and places them among princes; he gives the barren woman children. I boiled this down to three themes in verse 2: God gives us a place at the table, a place in the kingdom of God, and a place in God’s family. This song is part of my Hallel Psalm cantata, Everlasting to Everlasting.

Psalm 118: Everlasting to Everlasting
$5.00 Select options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product pagehttps://musicblog.gregscheer.com/COS-easter_everlasting.mp3
This last song from my Hallel Psalm cantata, Everlasting to Everlasting, is a setting of Psalm 118. This song is a slow burn—it sneaks up on you rather than grabbing you by the collar and shaking you. Use it like you would a song from Taizé, to accompany communion or as part of a contemplative service, for example.
