Psalm 1 - Genevan Psalter 1539

[Apologus1]

We sing this Psalm at least 4 times a year...much faster pace.

[ernststolz]

this is probably the original tempo (nowadays everything is faster)

[Apologus1]

@ernststolz Please post more when possible. Thanks for your labors.

@kmlow222 Where is your Psalm FB page?

[kmlow222]

@Apologus1 I have tried to put the link in and it will not post it, but if you type copy Psalms ~ 40 Weeks of Psalms and paste it in the search box on FB it should come up and you can join. We are just finishing week 2 today so we are not too far into it. I post six to twelve verses a day and a song. Please stop by and check it out, blessings Kathy

This was a truly lovely video and beautifully performed music. Some Churches in the USA still know and sing the tunes from the Geneva Psalter, but they are rare. This brought a lot of joy to my heart.  I hope you will do more. I love Psalms. BRIAN

[ernststolz]

thanks Brian, I think I will do all of them...

@redbrian3655 Here in the Netherlands we sing the Psalms still on the melodies of the Geneva Psalter.
