The word is the name of the obscure writer of the song----Selah Jones. There are only two people on earth who know that. Me and one other person who is on vacation for the next two weeks.

an expression occurring frequently in the Psalms, thought to be a liturgical or musical direction, probably a direction by the leader to raise the voice or perhaps an indication of a pause.

meaning "pause, reflection", within the context of a prayer or psalms, is similar in purpose to Amen in that it stresses the importance of the preceding passage.
