The Book of Psalms

“It is not out of compliment that lovers keep on telling one another how beautiful they are; the delight is incomplete till it is expressed…”

C.S Lewis

The Book of Psalms is at the heart of the Christian Bible. The Psalmist cries out to God at times of despair, in supplication, in frustration and penitence but ultimately, in Praise.

Half of the Psalms were likely written by the Shepherd-King, David, a man described in the Bible as “a man after God’s own heart”. Indeed, the Psalms express a true heart cry to the Creator, with no pseudo religiosity, but with a refreshing honesty that has kept the Psalms at the core of worship for thousands of years.

Here they are read, in the King James Authorised translation, by Simon Hester, with original music, sparingly used, to enhance the readings.
