The Psalms are the Holy Spirit’s own hymnbook. They are rich in the history of Israel, the prophecies of Christ, the wisdom of God and the steadfast love of the Lord. You probably know a few by heart. It was once required that pastors be able to “sing an entire David,” that is, to know the whole Psalter from memory (Canons of the Second Council of Nicea, Canon 2).

But what if you’re just starting to learn and pray the Psalms?

With your Bible and one of these pages in hand, you should have everything you need to take your first step into any of the 150 Psalms. 

These “One-Sheets” were an outgrowth of the 2024 Institute on Liturgy, Preaching and Church Music where, over the course of the four-day conference, attendees sang and prayed all 150 Psalms together. We are delighted to release this resource for the good of the wider church.

They are ideal for rehearsals so that choirs can sing with understanding. They could be used for Bible study starters or bulletin inserts. Above all, we commend them to your devotional use as a tool to help you pray and sing the Psalms with faith in Jesus Christ.
