This setting of Psalm 18 deals with deliverance from trouble, and more importantly, deliverance from death and sin in Jesus Christ's triumphant resurrection. Colin and Tyler discuss love for The Lord and seeking refuge in Him, what Psalm 18 says about His wrath, the fear of God (Proverbs 1:7), what it is like reading the Bible as one ages, the benefits of singing old hymns, and a children's movie. Unfortunately, no recorded choral setting with the hymn lyrics is widely accessible. Colin reads the text over a piano setting and the original Saint-Saëns Symphony No. 3. Text: O Lord, I Love You, My shield, My tow'r, my stronghold, my rock, my saving pow'r, I worship you! Bless your holy name! What unceasing praise your mercies claim! Cords of death had bound my heart with fear; tidal waves of Satan crested near, "God, my God," I cried, "hear from your throne; save me from these depths, make mercy known!" Saving might brought answer, Lord Most High. Dark your path; your storm clouds swept the sky; lightning flashed, deep thunder spoke your word. Waters parted; death your summons heard. You came down, almighty Lord, my stay, drew me up and drove my foes away. Your right hand put Satan's host to flight, then clasped me, embraced in your delight. Now among all nations I would sing, praising our anointed Lord, our King. Hear His cry of triumph from the grave, see him leap the wall of death to save. His the righteousness that claims reward, his the saving coming of the Lord. Hail him, Victor in that deadly strife: Jesus is our rock, our Prince of life. Audio sampled in this episode: "620.
