Did you know that this is the actual psalm that Saint Constance of Jesus chanted as she climbed the scaffold steps to approach the guillotine? It's the same psalm that Blessed Ana de Jesús intoned when she crossed the threshold of the first Discalced Carmelite monastery in France... Teresa of Ávila had always intoned the Te Deum when she began a new foundation.
