This psalm appears on Good Friday due to verse 1, which Jesus quoted on the cross, and subsequent predictions:
My God, why have you forsaken me?
Much has been said in previous posts on this psalm.

The Good Friday observance is sometimes conducted with little or no music in a period of quiet contemplation.
This Sunday at South Woden, we revert to a setting in Together in Song (TiS 9) by Christopher Willcock SJ.
Best presented in that minimalist style, we have not called for massed voices of the ‘Singers in the South’. Anyone who wishes to sing a verse, please contact the Cantor.
