I had a friend who was over my house for a house party that got a call that her sister was in a bad car accident and might not make it through the night. Her sister was in a different State and no way of her being able to see her until next day. I played her this psalm and asked everyone to pray... the calmness that came over us was unreal. We just knew god was gonna make it all better. This is one of my fav clips on KZitem and I thank you for posting it!

My husband and I had the priviledge of attending mass at Westminister Cathedral in London three times. The music was entralling-unforgettable. I looked around and the entire place was packed with mostly young people from all over the world. The lines for Confession were around the corner-again mostly young people. I feel there's a quiet rebirth going on in our Church. This parish is at the epi-center of it, perhaps! Thankx for posting. This is perfect.

Psalm 38 O LORD, do not rebuke me in your anger or discipline me in your wrath. For your arrows have pierced me, and your hand has come down upon me. Because of your wrath there is no health in my body; my bones have no soundness because of my sin. My wounds fester and are loathsome because of my sinful folly. My back is filled with searing pain; there is no health in my body O LORD, do not forsake me; be not far from me, O my God. Come quickly to help me, O Lord my Savior.

The Catholic Church is alive and well in London,England~the place of many martyrs, including +St.John Southworth+ who lies in state within this church. And this choir is incredibly inspiring and hard-working. Thankx.

Actually, this is Catholic. And the tune they used in chanting the psalm we hear in this video is an old traditional one, one of the a modal tones for psalms (if my memory serves me correct as regards the term). The reason why some may find this Anglican is because of the British accent. Nevertheless this is still Roman Catholic of the Vatican II Rites.

The absolute GOSPEL TRUTH is that the church founded by our Saviour is marked by four signs. Namely: She is ONE, She is Holy, She is Catholic and She is Apostolic. Sadly, no other protestant sect, can claim to be that Church. Our Lord founded the Church on Peter, Apostle of Christ and the first Bishop of Rome and therefore the first Pope. Pope Francis ,our present pope is his successor.

The Bishop of Rome is but one bishop in the one, holy, catholic and apostolic church...he is one of the five original bishoprics and Rome was indeed the see of Peter...as is Antioch. Constantinople, Jerusalem and Alexandria being the other three (the see of Andrew, James and Mark respectively). From there God has raised up bishops across the globe. Rome's line was broken with Avignon...Canterbury preserves it. I am a congregationalist, so I am just letting history speak for itself.

@micvpreaching Hardly. The Westminster Confession existed long before this cathedral. Article 25 par 6 would be enough to show that it could not have come from this denomination. Barely half a century after the drafting of the Westminster Confession, which was accepted by the Church of Scotland but not by the Church of England, control orders had to be placed on the Church of Rome due to what were seen as its antinational stance. The orders were not fully withdrawn til 1829.
