Singing is the key to opening the mysteries of the Psalm writers' historic faith.
Mysterious truths are from everlasting to everlasting. This means that singing the Psalms are full of power for living today's life. For navigating its complexities, for being the change in your world, grow deeper yourself. Hide in the shelter of the Almighty.
PRAISE FOR THE PSALM HYMNS:
What an amazing resource and tool for worship! This book can be used personally or corporately as a new collection of songs for worship, a small group study, or even a modern day hymnal. I give it a full five-star handshake. - Katie Flack, homeschool mom, drama kids mom
During King David's life: his wedding, his victories, his hiding and testing, his failures, his griefs and fears, he penned these personal meditations for the music director to use in worship to God.
Now, Larkins offers us a quintessential western music guide to singing the biblical Psalms' first two books, Psalms 1-72, using the tutorial style of standard hymns. The Psalms may again be sung.
Let them sink down to the roots of your soul. Teach them to children. Use them for Holy Land tours, group singing, and introductions to biblical messages, teachings, and testimony times.
L. L. Larkins is no stranger to cross-cultural forms of worship and praise among Christians. Larkins earned a B.A. in Bible and music composition from Colorado Christian University and served the traditional church, youth and a variety of African groups leading in worship and praise. She now studiously serves the body of Christ by transcribing psalms for singing and reflection, and by mentor-counseling.

Steven D. Mathewson, Senior Pastor of CrossLife Church, Libertyville, Illinois; Director of the Doctor of Ministry program at Western Seminary, Portland, Oregon; author of The Art of Preaching Old Testament NarrativeAuthor L. L. Larkins has provided a fantastic resource for anyone who loves the book of Psalms. In Psalm Hymns, she has paraphrased the lyrics of the 150 psalms so they can be sung to familiar hymn tunes. For example, her set of lyrics for Psalm 23 and the way she has set them to "Away in a Manger" are one of my favorites. This volume can be used as a devotional companion for reading the book of Psalms. Pastors and teachers can also use the Psalm-Hymns created by Larkins to introduce or conclude their sermons or lessons from the book of Psalms. This volume is also a great resource for small group Bible studies. However you use it, Psalm Hymns will take you deeper into the message of the psalms and help you express your praise and lament to God.
