Again, we can pray with a song composed by Myriam, from the Haifa kehilla. This time the melody is of Bach, the German composer, and the words are inspired by Psalm 31.

Listen to the song

You, who sit on high
Listen to my prayer
Be attentive to my heart
I who have sinned
In my words and in my heart.

You, who sit on high
Listen to my prayer
Be attentive to my heart
Heal the pain of my soul
The pain in my heart.

Incline your ear to me
Be a rock of refuge for me
Into your hand I commit my spirit
You have redeemed me, O Lord, faithful God
But I trust in the Lord
You have seen my affliction
And have not delivered me into the hand of the enemy.

You have set my feet in a broad place
But I trust in you, O Lord
I say, "You are my God"
Let your face shine upon your servant
Save me in your steadfast love
O how abundant is your goodness
Blessed be the Lord
You heard my supplications when I cried out to you for help.
