The Guild Of Biblical Musicalists

For the past few years when Iโ€™ve arrived at the Psalms section of my class on the Bible, Iโ€™ve shared a couple of examples of psalms in popular music: โ€œBy The Rivers Of Babylonโ€ by Boney M and โ€œ40โ€ by U2. I usually end the class with a song that segues nicely into the next subject, Wisdom literature: โ€œTurn Turn Turnโ€ by The Byrds.

Iโ€™m sharing the songs below. Do you have other recommendations for the Bible set to music?
