Sunday's Psalm--Second Sunday of Ordinary Time

Here am I, Lord; I come to do your will.





 I have waited, waited for the LORD,
and he stooped toward me and heard my cry.
And he put a new song into my mouth,
a hymn to our God.





Here am I, Lord; I come to do your will.



Sacrifice or offering you wished not,


but ears open to obedience you gave me.


Holocausts or sin-offerings you sought not;


then said I, “Behold I come.”




Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.








In the written scroll it is prescribed for me,



to do your will, O my God, is my delight,



and your law is within my heart!”




Here am I, Lord; I come to do your will.

I announced your justice in the vast assembly;
I did not restrain my lips, as you, O LORD, know.

Here am I, Lord; I come to do your will.



from Psalm 40
