11Performance NotesThis setting of Psalm 91 is intended to offer a contrast to my earlier setting, “On Eagle’s Wings.”It continues to be a celebration of God’s protection, but the concluding oracle appears in thissetting (verse four) as a direct command to the assembly, (or in the alternate text as a confidentdeclaration). The text of the Refrain is an adaptation of the appointed text when this psalm is usedas the common responsorial psalm during Lent.PRI have used this setting of Psalm 91 at wakes, funerals, and graveside services; in communalcelebrations of the Anointing of the Sick; at Communal Penance services; and during LentenEucharistic Celebrations. It is appointed for use as the responsorial psalm of the First Sunday ofLent (Year C), and is also a common psalm for the Lenten season. In the Liturgy of the Hours, it issung each week as the psalm at Sunday Compline.The melodic line in the right hand of the Intro/Coda may be taken by two C wind or stringinstruments (preferably oboe and flute). I try to give variety to the first three verses by havingthem sung by different timbres of cantorial voices: female, male, or a small schola. Verse fourshould be sung with real strength in contrast to the more delicate earlier verses and refrain.— M.J.IEVBe With Me, Lord (Be With Me, God)(Optional Inclusive-Language Text)REFRAIN:Be with me, God; be with me, God, when I am introuble and need.1. You who dwell in the shelter of God, Most High,who abide in Almighty’s shade,say to your God: “My refuge, my stonghold,my God in whom I trust!”2. Evil shall never befall you,nor affliction come near to your tent.Unto the angels God’s given a commandto guard you in all your ways.3. (no change)4. You will deliver us, O God, we cling to you:you raise us up when we call on your name.You will bring joy to our heartsand bless us with peace in all our days.EWBe With Me, Lord
