Voicing God's Psalms

Fresh verse translations of 37 biblical psalms

Seerveld follows half of his translations with singable psalm versifications fashioned to various melodies. In an introduction and an afterword, the author sets the biblical psalms in historical context, highlights the rough and tender tenor of God's psalms, and offers concrete suggestions for helping these psalms come alive in our private and public worship today.

There is an accompanying audio CD that features oral readings of many of the printed psalm translations, interspersed with select versification melodies played by solo recorder or saxophone.
