Throughout the ages, the Psalter has been the hymnal of not only Israel and Jesus, but also of Christians, including believers in Romania, until 200 years ago.
Nowadays, however, the command to sing the Psalms is neglected and the historical testimony is ignored. Our desire is to contribute to the restoration of this practice !
Nevertheless, in order to carry out this purpose, we realized that we needed to provide Christians with a resource that would help them to that effect. The good news is that we already have such a resource, which is: “THE SONGS OF THE PSALMS – The Metrical Psalter versified and set to music by Traian Dorz and Nicolae Moldoveanu”. This is the only Psalter in the history of our country that has been completely versified and set to original songs composed for each Psalm.
Singing together with refugees in their own language: Intercultureel Songbook of Gave and Songs2Serve make it possible. This Dutch, digital song book contains easy-to-sing Christian songs in various languages.
