Responsorial Psalm 14(15):2-5 for the 22nd Sunday on Ordinary Time, Year B

The just will live in the presence of the Lord.

Lord, who shall dwell on Your holy mountain?

He who walks without fault;

he who acts with justice

and speaks the truth from his heart;

he who does not slander with his tongue.

The just will live in the presence of the Lord.

As we travel through the desert
Storms beset us on our way
But beyond the River Jordan
Lies a field of endless days
Refrain 1

Proudly present the song, We Taste Heaven's Meal written by Dan Vi Nguyen and recorded at Diamond Garden Music.

To this timeless eighteenth hymn, various verses have been added.  I added two strophes that reflect the contemporary problems we face.
         
1 My life flows on in endless song,
All through Earth’s lamentation   
I catch his sweet, though far-off voice       
that hails the new creation.

2 When nations wage their high-tech wars

 

Responsorial Psalm 33(34):2-9 for the 19th Sunday in Ordinary Time, Tear B

Taste and see that the Lord is good.

I will bless the Lord at all times,

His praise always on my lips;

in the Lord my soul shall make its boast.

The humble shall hear and be glad.

Taste and see that the Lord is good.

Glorify the Lord with me.

REFRAIN
O Christ, your friends humbly pray:
Increase your light/in these dark days
let not evil’s subtle ways
Deceive us or leed us a stray

RRFRAIN
MY loving king and shepherd
Your goodness fails me never
I nothing lack if I am yours
And you are mine forever.

Proud  and foolish I once strayed,
But you with love  sought me,
And on your shoulder gently laid,
And home rejoicing brought me.

Where streams of living water flow,        
To rest my soul you lead me;
Where fresh and fertile pastures grow,
With heav’nly food you feed me.
REFRAIN

In death’s dark vale I fear no ill,
With you, dear Lord, beside me;
Your rod and staff my comfort still,
Your cross will ever guide me.

You spread a banquet in my sight,
My head with oil anointing,
And let me taste the sweet delight
From your pure chalice flowing.
REFRAIN

Loving shepherd, ever near
Teach me now, thy voice to hear
Suffer not my steps to stray
From the straight and narrow way

And so through all my length of days
Your goodness fails me never;
Good Shepherd, may I sing your praise
Within your house forever.
REFRAIN

And so through all my length of days
Your goodness fails me never;
Good Shepherd, may I sing your praise
Within your house forever.

The Catechism of the Catholic Church proclaims that "from infancy to death human life is surrounded by their [angels'] watchful care and intercession. Beside each believer stands an angel as protector and shepherd leading him to life. Already here on earth the Christian life shares by faith in the blessed company of angels and men united in God" (CCC, n. 336). Our dear guardian angels are a special gift to each one us  that  we should thank and pray for their protection and inspiration everyday

REFRAIN
My dear guardian angel -  helping me all these years,

 

Responsorial Psalm 144(145):10-11,15-18 for the 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year B

You open wide Your hand, O Lord, and grant our desires.

All Your creatures shall thank You, O Lord,

and Your friends shall repeat their blessing.

They shall speak of the glory of Your reign

and declare Your might, O God.

You open wide Your hand, O Lord, and grant our desires.

Great Is Thy Faithfulness
 

Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father;

there is no shadow of turning with Thee;

Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not;

With all the angels and the saints        
We’ll sing that new eternal song
