“I love the Lord for he has heard me and listened to my prayer.” Based on Psalm 116:1-9, 18, this song is one of trust and love for the God who saves us in distress. The 16-measure two-section refrain presents each half sung first by cantor or choir, with assembly on the repeat-facilitating instant learning. The verses are chanted to a tone, and the cello beautifully crowns the setting.
