Responsorial Psalm

The Responsorial Psalm is an important part of the "Liturgy of the Word" portion of the wedding. It is actually one of the readings,
but traditionally it is sung.

The piece that is sung here can't be just any hymn or sacred song; the words need to be taken from one of the Psalms.

The selections below represent our suggestions for the Responsorial Psalm. Don't be confused by the list of suggested Psalms in
the "Together for Life" book you may have been given by the Priest. Not all of those Psalms have appealing musical settings. We think you
will prefer the Psalms you can sample below.

Click on the titles below to listen to an MP3 file and find out more information about each piece.

"The Lord is Kind and Merciful" (Psalm 103)
"The King of Love My Shepherd is" (Psalm 23)
"This Day was made by the Lord" (Psalm 118)
"Hold Me in Life" (Psalm 25)

You should write down which selection you prefer before going to the next page.
