Capturing the beauty of the melody and the intensity of the message, Leslie Brandt restates 55 Old Testament psalms. These 55 are psalms of supplication, profound entreaties from the psalmists reacting to their own time and their own experiences. And their university is manifested in Brandt's renderings. Just as the ancient psalmists, today's Christian grapples seriously with the overwhelming problems of living. He searches for meaning and reason in a life of crucial decision making; a life of frailty and failure; personal relationships and advancing technology; fear, discrimination, and false prophets.
