Notes: ANCESTORS - (2h)[A], FOs up, DH is held against forehead, NDH close to head but lower, both hands open to (2h)[5] while moving upwards + (2h)[5], POs ><, FOs up, move in a vertical circle while moving back over shoulder.

YOU - Underlined words are honorific indices ("indexes"), using the FT of the upturned palm to indicate who is being honored.

DEFINITELY - (2h)[5], POs down, FOs away, descend rapidly and close to (2h)[F].

OVERTURNED - (2h)[5:], FOs away, DH is held high, PO down at its side and NDH is held low, PO up at its side. Both hands interchange PO and levels while moving slightly > DS.

THEREFORE - [bO] pokes a triangle of dots in the air like the mathematical symbol for "therefore".

FAITH - Like THINK TRUST but with elevated hands to show the trust is spiritual.

DEGENERATE - (2h)[A], POs ><, FOs away, both hands descend in an antisymmetric, wavy motion.

Lyrics (Psalm 16:5, 8, 9-10, 11):

Response: You are my inheritance, O Lord!

stained glass bulletO LORD, my allotted portion and my cup,
you it is who hold fast my lot.
I set the LORD ever before me;
with him at my right hand I shall not be disturbed. Response

stained glass bulletTherefore my heart is glad and my soul rejoices,
my body, too, abides in confidence;
because you will not abandon my soul to the netherworld,
nor will you suffer your faithful one to undergo corruption. Response

stained glass bulletYou will show me the path to life,
fullness of joys in your presence,
the delights at your right hand forever. Response
