Lamentations 3:1-27 (set to music) [NEW 2026 version]

Описание: Lamentations 3:22-23 is an oft quoted portion of Scripture, and for good reason: it is very encouraging to remind ourselves of the Lord's mercies! The fact that these two verses follow what is a LONG and relentlessly challenging section of 20 full verses that could throw a reader into complete despair if it were not for those beautiful two verses that rise from the depths of Jeremiah's lament. (Lam 3:1-20)

We posted another version of this almost 4 years ago. In the description we wrote: "We had hoped to polish this up, and perhaps add an instrument... but that isn’t going to happen anytime soon, so we'll let this go, as is, for now."

Here is that version with the hoped for added instruments and "polish". One dear friend likes the old one better, so we'll leave it up. Curious to know if others feel the same way.

We like this version at least as much as the original. It FEELS shorter to us even though it is half a minute longer. The interlude between verse 20 and 21 is close to perfect, especially considering how it was created. See below.

Full disclaimer: this version was created with SUNO... an AI generating platform. We uploaded the original version from 2022 into it and rejected MANY versions that did not have the same sound and feel of that original. It had to be split up into 4 sections (which were reassembled here) because the AI can't currently concentrate for more than 3 to 4 minutes.
