The Darkling Psalter is a project to create renditions of the Psalms.
Our confession this morning was from Psalm 25. Your rendition dovetails beautifully. These lines in particular grabbed me:
"Will you ravel me back and piece me together?
Or is the friendship of the Lord
Nearness as I come apart?
Show me what there is to know
In the way I need to know it.
Sweet singer, there is always more
Of your kindness than I thought was left."
The sermon at our church this morning will be on this Psalm. Perfect timing!
Enchanting. It’s marvelous how this lovely rendition keeps the yearning, earnest heart of the original Psalm but places it in a poetic autumnal setting.
The third stanza is remarkable. Just beautiful.
Oh what a beautiful prayer to make my own and return to often. Thank you!
