This is a prayer of faithfulness based on Psalm 132.

Psalm 132 was sung as the ark of the covenant was processed into the temple. The ark was carefully constructed to God's specifications. This psalm remembers the promises God made to David for his faithfulness.

God is faithful to us also.

This psalm is the responsorial psalm for the vigil Mass for the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Mary is the new ark of the covenant, who bore the Lord inside her very self.
