PERSONAL MEDITATION MODEL

WORD ON FIRE OPTION

Bishop Barron's organization produces a monthly booklet that contains Morning, Evening, and Night Prayer for each day. It reads straight through like a book except for the beginning hymns for each hour which are all in the back of the booklet. Try using a prayer card instead of a ribbon!

Below is a close approximation to the hymn they have chosen. Often the video has more or different verses. Sometimes the translation and or the tune will be different.  Unfortunately, sometimes the choice of hymn has to be changed due to the lack of available videosI have suggested they choose hymns from YouTube and provide links on their website. A staffer though it was a good idea; nothing has happened.

HYMN SELECTED FROM MY PERSONAL FAVORITES

This fourth hymn option is strongly influenced by the blog author's liturgical music collection (first vinyl discs, then cassettes, finally CDs). For decades this musical collection has supported the celebration of the Hours.  Now with YouTube videos, anyone can start a blog like this to link to their favorite hymns for the celebration of the Hours.

Behold, God is my savior, I will deal confidently, and will not fear. O because the Lord is my strength, and my praise, and he has become my salvation.

You shall draw waters with joy out of the savior's fountains:  And you shall say in that day: Praise ye the Lord and call upon his name: make his works known among the people: remember that his name is high.

Extended Reading
(1 Kings 8:51-53)


51 For they are your people, and your inheritance, whom you have brought out of the land of Egypt, from the midst of the furnace of iron.
 52 That your eyes may be open to the supplication of your servant, and of your people Israel, to hear them in all things for which they shall call upon you.
 53 For you have separated them to yourself for an inheritance from among all the people of the earth, as you have spoken by Moses thy servant, when thou brought our fathers out of Egypt, O Lord God.
 
54 And it came to pass, when Solomon had made an end of praying all this prayer and supplication to the Lord, that he rose from before the altar of the Lord: for he had fixed both knees on the ground, and had spread his hands towards heaven.
 55 And he stood and blessed all the assembly of Israel with a, loud voice, saying:
 56 Blessed be the Lord, who has given rest to his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there has not failed so much as one word of all the good things that he promised by his servant Moses.
 57 The Lord our God be with us, as he was with our fathers, and not leave us, nor cast us off:
 58 But may he incline our hearts to himself, that we may walk in all his ways, and keep his commandments, and his ceremonies, and all his judgments which he commanded our fathers.

 59 And let these my words, which I have prayed before the Lord, he nigh unto the Lord our God day and night, that he may do judgment for his servant, and for his people Israel day by day:
 60 That all the people of the earth may know, that the Lord he is God, and there is no other besides him.
 61 Let our hearts also be perfect with the Lord our God, that we may walk in his statutes, and keep his commandments, as at this day.



Short Responsory paraphrase
God will free me from the trap of predators.
And from their sharp words.

Responsorium breve
℣. Quoniam ipse liberavit me de laqueo venantium,
  ℟ et a verbo aspero.  (Psalm 90:3 VUC).. 




Antiphon
My son, remember that during your life you received good things, 
just as Lazarus received bad things.

Fili, recordáre quia recepísti bona in vita tua et Lázarus simíliter mala.
