What was Bono saying before “Where the Streets Have No Name” during the Elevation Tour?
He was quoting from a portion of Psalm 116 of the Old Testament: What can I give back to God For the blessings he’s poured out on me I’ll lift hig the cup of salvation A toast to God I’ll pray in the name of God I’ll complete what I promised God I’ll do And I’ll do it together with his people The translation of Psalm 116 that Bono had been quoting before “Where the Streets Have No Name” is taken directly from The Message by Eugene Peterson.
