SATB and Organ. A marvelous, hauntingly beautiful setting of a chant tune by Peter Abelard (1079-1142). Mystical and ethereal — perfect for Lent, an evening service, or anytime Psalm 91 is read.

Lyrics

All you who abide in the shadow of the Most High,
Will say to the Almighty, "My refuge, in whom I rely."
And those who love Him, and call upon God's name;
Their prayers shall be answered, their honor proclaimed.
In trouble, in danger, their rescue assured;
To show God's salvation, the Day of the Lord.

Low before Him with our praises we fall,
of whom and in Whom, and through Whom are all;

Of Whom the Father; and through Whom the Son,
In whom the Spirit with These ever One.
Amen.
