“Where does the millennial appeal of the psalms really lie? As prayers they engage us by their intensity and emotional force… We sense a real voice, often a communal one, pleading or arguing with the divine, or just breathlessly admiring. We are taken by their rhythmical eloquence. God, the addressee, is always their magnetic center.”

The psalms—the great songs of Israel —are loved for their vivid images and their profound relevance to human life. In Yearning for You, My God, Fr. James Torrens SJ presents 35 of the principle psalms of the psalter. Thoughtfully selected from each of the genres—praise, thanksgiving, lament and more —they provide a window into the depth and breadth of this great book of the Bible. Each is accompanied by a prayerful reflection about the spirituality and meaning of these beautiful ancient expressions of faith in God.
