This song, based on Psalm 61, is set to an instrumental I posted on the forum 5 years ago. It was called Serenity.I added the lyrics in June last year. __________________________________________________ Lord, hear my cry, attend unto my prayer
From the end of the earth to you, O Lord, I cry
And when my heart is overwhelmed
Lead me to the Rock that is higher than I
For you have been a shelter from the storm
A tower of strength from every evil thing
And when my heart is overwhelmed
I will trust in the shelter of your wings
Lord, hear my cry, attend unto my prayer
From the end of the earth to you, O Lord, I cry
And when my heart is overwhelmed
Lead me to the Rock that is higher than I

Wow, this is extraordinary, Brian. Your vocals are always special, but I can hear such passion and inspiration in this one. The perfect melody and feel for the serrenity of 61. Excellent lyrics!

Hi Brian!
As others have said, fantastic vocal and sung with humility and gentleness which is what the song required. Nice length to the song as well. Great use of minor iv and maj7 chords as well.

This is a lovely and lilting tune. Your vocal is excellent: smooth and expressive. The instrumentation is perfect for the psalm.

Well, it would be redundant to say your vocals are off the charts, but it needs to be said. Nice adaptation of the Psalm, and well arranged for the solo vocal. Super mix, too. Superb stuff!

I enjoyed your gentle voice which gives wings to the beautiful prayer. Lovely folky background with Celtic flavors that always delight me. Selected instruments support nicely each other and the mix is clean and crisp.

Great vocal ... packed with passion and soul.
Nice BiaB session guys and wrapped in a good mix.
One would think this would be a popular P&W song.
Is it on the streaming platforms?
Well done!

Hi Janice & Bud. Thank you for your assessment and kind comments. One would think this would be a popular P&W song.

J&B To be honest, I had not even thought about it. I'm still waiting for our own worship team to pitch it to the congregation (the general pace here being adagio rather than allegro).
