The lyrics do not come from Psalms but actually come from:
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 NIV
A Time for Everything1 There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven: 2 a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, 3 a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build, 4 a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, 5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain, 6 a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away, 7 a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak, 8 a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace

"Are You Lonesome Tonight" by Elvis Presley was the number 1 hit song on December 5, 1960.
I think Bob Dylan wrote the song (and sang it as well) but I know Roger Mcguinn of the Byrds (with help on harmony from David Crosby) sang it on their cover version of "Turn, Turn, Turn".

Ecclesiastes 3:1
Turn! Turn! Turn!
"Love Me Tender" by Elvis Presley was the number 1 song on November 8, 1956.
The first one that comes to mind is the Pete Seeger song 'Turn,Turn,Turn' with lyrics borrowed from Ecclesicastes 3:1-15 . However there are snipits of Biblical references in a few other songs and spiritual songs about beliefs .

Psalms is old testament ... that's BC.
"Are You Lonesome Tonight" by Elvis Presley was the number 1 hit song on December 5, 1960.
I think Bob Dylan wrote the song (and sang it as well) but I know Roger Mcguinn of the Byrds (with help on harmony from David Crosby) sang it on their cover version of "Turn, Turn, Turn".
The lyrics to the song, are written by Joseph Edgar Foreman, better known as Afroman himself. The song was inspired by his own life and how he wants to turn things around.
The Byrds made music in the early and middle of the nineteen sixties and the genre of music they played was soft blues and rock n roll music that was generally attributed to Elvis during this time.
