Lyrics Album for the Young, Op. 39: Sweet Dreams: Sweet Dreams - Slovak Radio Symphony Orchestra

From the psalms
of our father David
the prophet and king,
may his blessings
be with us all Amen.

My enemies speak
evil things against me:
"Against me they devise evils for me,
And if he comes to see us,
he speaks in vain;
his heart gathers lowlessness
to itself. Alleluia.

O God have mercy and compassion
upon us,
and make us worthy
to hear to The Holy Gospel.
A reading according to St Matthew,
may his blessings be with us all Amen.

Then the chief priests,
the scribes,
and the elders of the people
assembled at the palace of the high priest,
who was called Caiaphas,
and plotted to take Jesus by trickery and kill Him.
But they said, "Not during the feast,
lest there be an uproar among the people."
And when Jesus was in Bethany at the house of Simon the leper,
a woman came to Him having an alabaster flask of very costly
fragrant oil, and she poured it on His head as He sat at the table.
But when His disciples saw it,
they were indignant, saying,
"Why this waste?
"For this fragrant oil might have
been sold for much and given to the poor."
But when Jesus was aware of it,He said to them,
"Why do you trouble the woman? For she has done a good work for Me.
"For you have the poor with you always, but Me you do not have always.
"For in pouring this fragrant oil
on My body, she did it for My burial.
"Assuredly, I say to you,
wherever this gospel is preached
in the whole world,
what this woman has done
will also be told as a memorial to her." Then one of the twelve,
Judas called the Iscariot,
went to the chief priests and said,
"What are you willing to give me if I deliver Him to you?"
And they counted out to him thirty pieces of silver.
So from that time
he sought opportunity to betray Him.
Bow down before the Gospel
Glory be to God forever . Amen.
