Your Holy Hill (Psalm 15)

Our heroes discuss the genesis of one of our most joyful of all My Soul Among Lion songs. 

In which we discuss one of MSAL's most singable and congregational songs, and also one of the first to feature the inimitable Corrie Van Dyke. 

In which our heroes discuss O Savior, Come (Psalm 14). 

In the scriptures, Psalm 13 is very similar to Psalm 6. How do you handle that when you come to adapt it? Here's the story of how My Soul Among Lions did it. 

Is this intuitively a bluegrass psalm? What goes into an adaptation? Listen to the story of My Soul Among Lion's setting of Psalm 12, The Words of the LORD. 

 Between the Lions talks about "Come Now, My Friend (Psalm 11)". And also the genesis of the second MSAL album. 

Between the Lions talks about Rise Up, O LORD (Psalm 10) and the nature of imprecatory psalms. 

This was one of the more difficult nuts for us to crack, but sometimes all it takes is one bad idea, the right kind of bad idea, to help you think of the good idea. That's the story of My Soul Among Lion's setting of Psalm 9, Zion's Daughter. 

It was a difficult journey to get to one of My Soul Among Lions more beloved songs, Beyond the Stars, with probably the most drama ever in any of our song productions. Herein lies the chilling tale.

Adapting Psalm 8 occasioned about as much drama as anything in the My Soul Among Lions psalm-setting journey. This is part 1 of that story.
