Psalm 73

Music and lyrics by: Manoling Francisco, SJ

Arrangement: Paulo K Tirol Soloist: Leanne Laudico-Arcinue

Listen:

With You, I am always with You,
You hold me tight, Your hand in mine.
You bring all things to a good end,
You lead me on in Your good pleasure.
What is heaven to me without You?

Where am I on earth if You are not there?
Though my body is broken down,
Though my heart dies, You are my rock,
My God, the Future that waits for me.
Far away from You, life is not life.
To break faith with You is to be no one.

With You, my highest good, my God, with You, I am secure.

A meditative composition by Manoling Francisco, SJ, Psalm 73 is a song of faith and devotion to a God Who gives us ourselves. In the struggle to live out our faith, a faith that is often tested, we find comfort in the words of the psalmist. This prayer reminds us that we are His always and that, although our futures are uncertain, we can rest in the assurance that His love for us never fails.
