About This Song
About "Mornington: Psalm 119: Verses 161-168 "Principes persecuti sunt"" by St Paul's Cathedral Choir
Mornington's verses find the psalmist pursued by princes, yet rejoicing in God's word. The choir's steady chant is a sanctuary, each verse a stone in a fortress. The tension is between the hunters outside and the peace within—a trembling, grateful calm.
