Psalm 119:121-128 (Ayin)

Psalm 119 is an acrostic prayer song celebrating God's word. Psalm 119 was written as 22 eight verse stanzas, one for each of the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet. The first eight verses of Psalm 119 all begin with the Hebrew letter Aleph. The next eight verses begin with the Hebrew letter Beth. This pattern continues through the rest of the psalm. Each verse of this stanza begins with the Hebrew letter Ayin.


To sing the sixteenth stanza of Psalm 119 we set lyrics by Joel Stamoolis to the traditional American melody "Nettleton."
