We hope you will be blessed by our compilation and interpretation gleaned from the Psalter and a special collection of American, Irish and Scottish folk melodies... so we present our album... Folk Psalms!
In the Holy Scriptures the book of Psalms was called "The Praises" and was regularly used as the liturgical hymn-book in the Temple services, much as today it is the foundation of many of the songs of the church. In all the Bible there is no other book like it, unless paradoxically it might be said that it is like all the others in that it contains the essence of all the Scriptures. Jesus Himself declared He was spoken of in the Psalms and that what was foretold there must be fulfilled (Luke 24:44). A number of the Psalms are fervent prayers of penitence; others are prayers for release from affliction or rescue from the enemy. Some are prayers of trust and assurance. More deal with instruction in matters of right and wrong or teach correct attitudes toward life. Psalms of thanksgiving for God's goodness and mercy make up a large portion of the book and Psalms of praise of God's glory and power and majesty are found among those praising His goodness.
