I am Crying Out to God / Al Señor Clamé

In this song I combine Psalms 120 and 121, the first two Psalms of Ascent. They are really two prayers, very poignant for the days we live: “I am crying out to God in my anguish, and He has heard my cry…” Verse two of the song makes a turn into hope, the prayer of Psalm 121: “I will lift my eyes to the mountains…”

En éste  salmo, combino salmos 120 y 121, los primeros Cantos Graduales en el Salterio. Realmente son dos oraciones muy profundas para los días que vivimos: “Al Señor clamé estando en angustia. y él me escuchó…” La segunda estrofa nos torna hacia la esperanza del salmo 121: “Alzaré los ojos a los montes…”
