Here\u2019s a lovely rendition of a mournful hymn, adapted from Psalm 34, performed by John Michael Talbot.<\/p>\n

It was composed by one of the \u201cSt. Louis Jesuits,\u201d John Foley:\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

John Foley, S. J. (born 1939) is an American composer of Catholic liturgical music and a professor of liturgy at St. Louis University. Among his better known compositions are \u201cOne Bread, One Body\u201d (1978), \u201cEarthen Vessels\u201d (1975), \u201cCome to the Water\u201d (1978), \u201cThe Cry of the Poor\u201d (1978), \u201cFor You Are My God\u201d (1970), and the album \u201cAs a River of Light\u201d (1989).<\/p>\n

Much of his early work on liturgical music was as a member of a group called the St. Louis Jesuits, with whom he released several albums. Other members of the St. Louis Jesuits were Dan Schutte, Bob Dufford, Roc O\u2019Connor, and Tim Manion. He has also released several solo collections of liturgical music. Both the solo and the group efforts were released through publishers OCP (formerly Oregon Catholic Press), National Association of Liturgical Resources and GIA Publications.<\/p>\n

Since 1993, he is the director of the Center for Liturgy at St. Louis University.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
