The original fourth stanza ("Frail as summer's flower"), corresponding with verses 15–17 of the Psalm, was marked for optional omission in the original printing and many modern hymnals therefore do not include it.

Responsive reading is the alternate reading of a text between the leader of a group and the rest of the group, [1] especially during worship or Bible study or during the reading of the Psalms at Bible reading time.

Psalm 1 is the first psalm of the Book of Psalms, beginning in the English King James Version: "Blessed is the man", and forming "an appropriate prologue" to the whole collection according to Alexander Kirkpatrick. [1] The Book of Psalms is part of the third section of the Hebrew Bible, [2] and a book of the Christian Old Testament.
Like many other psalms, it includes dramatic lament (e.g. verses 81–88), joyous praise (e.g. verses 45–48), and prayers for life, deliverance, and vindication (e.g. verses 132–34). What makes Psalm 119 unique is the way that these requests are continually and explicitly grounded in the gift of the Torah and the psalmist's loyalty to it.
Psalm 103 is the 103rd psalm of the Book of Psalms, beginning in English in the King James Version: "Bless the L ORD, O my soul". The Book of Psalms is part of the third section of the Hebrew Bible, and a book of the Christian Old Testament. In Latin, it is known as "Benedic anima mea Domino". [1] The psalm is a hymn psalm. [2]

A song by The Mountain Goats titled "Psalm 40:2" appears on their 2009 album The Life of the World to Come, inspired by this verse. [16]
