Psalm 37: Acrostic

Psalm 37 is an acrostic psalm with twenty-two sections built on each letter of the Hebrew alphabet. This musical setting follows that pattern, with twenty-two “songlets.” The last four measures of each songlet can be sung in counterpoint to the first four measures of the next, creating a twenty-two-link musical chain.
