All Psalms are songs…written by the author under the guidance of God’s Holy Spirit to express various humans emotions. This piece helps identify what type of Psalm the author was using to convey those emotions.There’s thirteen (13) different types of Psalms identified here.
Much of this is taken from the book, Out Of The Depths – The Psalms Speak For Us Today, by Bernhard Anderson.
Let’s dive in, shall we?
Column 1 = the Psalm # from the Holy Bible
Column 2 = the Psalm type (of the 13) from Legend
Legend: Lament, Individual (LI); Lament, Corporate (LC) ; Thanksgiving, Community (TC); Thanksgiving, Individual (TI); Hymns of Praise (HP),Salvation History (SH); Celebration & Affirmation (CA) – Covenant Renewal Liturgies (CRL), Royal Kingship (RK), Enthronement (E), Songs of Zion (SZ); Wisdom (W); Songs of Trust (ST); Liturgy (LIT); Imprecatory Anger – Anger at Others Directed to God Only (IA); Alpha (A) – each line begins with different Hebrew letter
Note: you’ll see below 2 complete lists; List 1 is arranged numerically, and List 2 is arranged by Psalm type. Also, may Psalms are combinations of more than one type…be on the lookout for that important fact from the mind of God!
You may download this work in chart form here.
May this draw you closer to the Lord Father God and His Christ so you continue in and grow to all He desires of You. We exist for His pleasure and the full completion of His kingdom, which is the eternal purpose of God carried out through Jesus Christ, our Lord!
