I waited patiently for God;
he kindly heard my cry.
He drew me up out of the pit,
out of the miry bog,
and set my feet upon a rock,
and made my steps secure.
He put a new song in my mouth,
a song of praise to God.
Many will see and fear,
and put their trust in the LORD.

Psalm 62:9-12
02:42
|
|
||
|
Those of a low state are but a breath;
those of a high state are a delusion;
in the balances they go up;
they are together lighter than a breath.
Put no trust in extortion;
set no vain hopes on robbery;
if riches increase, set not your heart on them.
Once God has spoken;
twice have I heard this:
that power belongs to God,
and that to you, O Lord, belongs steadfast love.
For you will render to a man
according to his work.

May God be gracious to us and bless us
and make his face to shine upon us,
that your way may be known on earth,
your saving power among all nations.
Let the peoples praise you, O God;
let all the peoples praise you!
Let the nations be glad and sing for joy,
for you judge the peoples with equity
and guide the nations upon earth.
Let the peoples praise you, O God;
let all the peoples praise you!
The earth has yielded its increase;
God, our God, shall bless us.
God shall bless us;
let all the ends of the earth fear him!

Forever, O LORD, your word is
firmly fixed in the heavens.
Your faithfulness endures to all generations;
you've established the earth,and it stands fast.
By your appointment they stand this day,
for all things are your servants.
If your law had not been my delight,
I would have perished in my affliction.
I will never forget your precepts,
for by them you have given me life.
I am yours; save me,
for I have sought your precepts.

Idiot Psalm 5
01:05
|
|
||
|
With unclean lips, at least, and yea
with unclean hands, encumbered heart,
congested, lo these many years,
with no small measure of regret,
and sin's particulate debris,
with these and countless other dear
impediments, I stoop to find
my knees. And on occasion You,
Whose dimly figured Face I dare
pursue to searing clarity,
have condescended, acquiesced
to grant what little I might bear.

I long for the day when these are removed
from me, from them
The Lord has bared his holy arm
before the eyes of all the nations
I long for the day when these are removed
from me, from them
Bloodguiltiness, works of iniquity
The lying tongue, haughty eyes
The planter of discord, feet that run to evil
I long for the day when these are removed
from me, from them
And all the ends of the earth
Shall see the salvation of our God
And sorrow and sighing will flee
And sorrow and sighing will flee
No lack of joy, rest, or comfort
Sorrow and sighing will flee
Now sing, o soul, now sing
Now sing, o soul, now sing
Now sing, o soul, to God above
That all may know his steadfast love
Now sing, o soul, now sing
Now sing, o soul, now sing

Alas! and did my Savior bleed?
And did my Sovereign die?
Would He devote that sacred head
For such a man as I?
Was it for crimes that I have done
He suffered on the tree?
Amazing pity! grace unknown!
And love beyond degree!
Well might the sun in darkness hide,
And shut his glories in,
When Christ, the mighty Maker, died
For man, the creature's sin.
But drops of grief can ne'er repay
The debt of love that I owe;
Here, Lord, I give myself away--
'Tis all that I can do.
AMEN.

I bless thee, Lord, because I G R O W
Among thy trees, which in a R O W
To thee both fruit and order OW.
What open force, or hidden C H A R M
Can blast my fruit, or bring me H A R M,
While the inclosure is thine A R M?
Inclose me still for fear I S T A R T.
Be to me rather sharp and T A R T,
Then let me want thy hand & A R T.
When thou dost greater judgements S P A R E,
And with thy knife but prune and P A R E,

Such sharpness shows the sweetest F R E N D:
Such cuttings rather heal than R E N D:
And such beginnings touch their E N D.

Christ Jesus lay in death's strong bands,
for our offenses given;
but now at God's right hand he stands
and brings us life from heaven.
Therefore let us joyful be,
and sing to God right thankfully
loud songs of alleluia! Alleluia!
It was a strange and dreadful strife
when life and death contended.
The victory remained with life;
the reign of death was ended.
Holy Scripture plainly says
his death has swallowed up our death;
its sting is lost forever. Alleluia!
Here the true paschal Lamb we see,
whom God so freely gave us.
He died on the accursed tree--
so strong his love-- to save us.
See, his blood now marks our door;
faith points to it, death passes o'er,
and Satan cannot harm us. Alleluia!
So let us keep the festival
to which the Lord invites us.
Christ is himself the joy of all,
the sun that warms and lights us.
Now his grace to us imparts
eternal sunshine to our hearts;
the night of sin is ended. Alleluia!
Then let us feast this holy day
on Christ, the bread of heaven.
The Word of grace has purged away
the old and evil leaven.
Christ alone our souls will feed;
he is our meat and drink indeed;
faith lives upon no other! Alleluia!

Hesychasterion

I am etching out a dwelling in the granite of my heart.
I am thinking then to torch its walls and sweep out all debris
with a green, a heavy branch of rosemary.
I mean to carve a niche inside therein to rest a lamp,
and set behind that vigil lamp an icon of the Christ,
and, kneeling there, lean in to find a little taste
of stillness--that I might descend full unto a likely depth
of vision and a whelming calm, wherein I might obtain
an aspect likely as His own and without stain.
I will prepare a censer--one glowing coal, deep red amid
the heart's obscurity. And leaning into what bides there
will place on it, mid-prayer, a bit of myrrh.
Should I make my way at last to the hollow of my heart,
I hope as well to apprehend a stilling of the crowd,
within which stillness I might dare approach the cloud.
I am etching out a dwelling in the granite of my heart.

Jon Green is singular! His tunes mix and blend both sober and exulting tones while matching them with words that are rich in a true understanding of man and his relationship with God.
