Description

SATB Choir. A short and fairly easy introit on Psalm 85:10-11. Good when the text comes up in the lectionary, but also whenever "righteousness and peace" are the focus of the service.

Lyrics

Mercy and truth have met together,
Righteousness and peace have kissed each other.
Truth shall spring up from the earth,
and righteousness shall look down from heaven.
