Notes: This song may be sung by the congregation as a two-part canon. It is also effective to have the congregation sing only part 2 (“Hallelujah”), divided evenly between lead and echo, with a soloist or ensemble singing the text of part 1. This simple chant forms a wonderful meditative prayer that can frame the reading of this psalm or any Scripture reading.
