Psalm 16

Psalm 16

Psalm 16 rejoices in the beautiful inheritance of the LORD's servant, which includes even being delivered from the grave. Psalm 16 is preached by both Peter and Paul in the book of Acts in reference to Jesus' resurrection. As we sing this psalm in Christ, we affirm that, in Him, we will one day also be resurrected. Our inheritance is beautiful indeed!

To sing Psalm 16, we wrote an original paraphrase to fit the traditional American melody of the hymn "Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing".

This recording features Andrea Sandefur on vocals, Sean Tracy on guitar, Joel Stamoolis on double bass and vocals, and Jeremy Bloomstrom on djembe.
