Rediscover the Rich Treasures of the Psalms
Drawn from Psalms 1-75 - Volume 1
Sheltering Mercy helps us rediscover the rich treasures of the Psalms--through free-verse prayer renderings of their poems and hymns--as a guide to personal devotion and meditation.
The church has always used the Psalms as part of its prayer life, and they have inspired countless other prayers. This book contains 75 prayers drawn from Psalms 1-75, providing lyrical sketches of what authors Ryan Whitaker Smith and Dan Wilt have seen, heard, and felt while sojourning in the Psalms.
While each prayer corresponds to a particular psalm and touches on its themes and ideas, it is not a new translation of the Psalms or an attempt to modernize or contextualize their content or language. Rather, the prayers are responses to the Psalms written in harmony with Scripture. These prayers help us quiet our hearts before God and welcome us into a safe place amid the storms of life.
This artful, poetic, and classic devotional book features compelling custom illustrations and beautiful hardcover binding, offering a fresh way to reflect on and pray the Psalms.

"The Psalms provide a limitless treasure for the people of God, and this collection shows just how limitless that treasure is. Combining prayer, poetry, and art, it will richly nourish any who want to grow in their sense of the 'sheltering mercy' of God."
--Jeremy Begbie, Duke University
"This beautiful collection of psalms expressed as poetic prayer reminds us of the relevance of reverence in our daily lives and the hope breathed through even the darkest of sufferings."
--Carolyn Weber, author of Surprised by Oxford and Holy Is the Day
"The prayers in Sheltering Mercy harmonize with the text of Scripture and make it come alive in a whole new way."
--Michael W. Smith, singer-songwriter
