Psalm 39(40):2,4,7-10 for the 2nd Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year B - Here I Am, Lord! I Come To Do Your Will

Ps 65: 4

All the earth shall bow down before you, O God,

and shall sing to you,

shall sing to your name, O Most High!

 

 

Responsorial Psalm 39(40):2,4,7-10

 

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

 

I waited, I waited for the Lord

 and he stooped down to me;

 he heard my cry.

He put a new song into my mouth,

 praise of our God.

 

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

 

You do not ask for sacrifice and offerings,

 but an open ear.

You do not ask for holocaust and victim.

 Instead, here am I.

 

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

 

In the scroll of the book it stands written

 that I should do your will.

My God, I delight in your law

 in the depth of my heart.

 

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

 

Your justice I have proclaimed

 in the great assembly.

My lips I have not sealed;

 you know it, O Lord.

 

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