Praying the Psalms with Augustine and Friends

Psalm 24 with Gertrude the Great – The Generation That Seeks God The earth is the LORD’s, and everything in it (v. 1) Psalm: To the Lord belongs the earth. Antiphon: 1 This is the generation of those who seek the Lord, who seek the face of the God of Jacob (v. 6). Prayer: Make me, dulcet 2 Jesus, to be listed and numbered in the generation of those who know you, God of Israel; among the generation of those who seek your face, God of Jacob; in the generation of those who cherish you, God of hosts. Ah! That I, an innocent woman, with [clean] hands and a clean heart, may accept your blessing and mercy, God, my savior.
